I have an on going issue of space/updates. I have 3x1 TB drives, Why can't I not use my SSD drive to hold my Adobe suite? I keep switching my apps round to different drives but just messes things up. I've built a new PC with Linux thinking this would solve several issues but installing the Adobe apps is a no no. 

Thank you

Adobe apps need Windows, not a Linux.

Good catch, I didn't even see the OP put Linux as the OS.

Adobe apps have to install on the same drive as the Operating System/User Account due to resource reliances.

This post goes into some details.
