Default install locations for QLIK Sense

Couple of questions regarding installation

First, where are the server system requirements for QLIK Sense?

Secondly, where does the application store data?  Is this configurable?  I.E., can I configure where I want it to store data, and where I want it to be installed?

I found the install guide here; Qlik Sense Quick Installation Guide

I found the system requirements here; https://help.qlik.com/sense/2.1/en-US/online/#../Subsystems/Installation/Content/Introduction/system... requirements

This still does NOT answer my fundamental question. Where does the application store data?  In the install path?  In places other than the database?  How do you size the storage for the database?

It's very simple

Qlik sense Desktop store app as qvf files to %userdocuments%\Qlik\Sense\Apps\

Qlik Sense Server store app as binary files  to  C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Apps

That might be simple, but it's not very well designed. In our environment (and most Enterprise environments I've worked in) we do not allow saving of application data on the "C" or OS drive.  Applications and users have no permissions on the C or OS drive.

I have the install team telling me that all data is saved to "C:\" and they want a 300 Gb OS drive or some such ridiculousness.

So, how do I move all of this data to the drive used for user and application data?
