The best practice for optimal performance is to utilize an Adobe Cache project to automatically move your media cache to your high speed editorial storage rather than the C: drive. Contact your OrgAdmin is you are not assigned to an Adobe Cache project.
Here is the process to update Adobe Premiere to manually use the high speed editorial storage for the Media Cache.

Mount the "Adobe Cache” project from the Enterprise Workstation Dashboard. Your project may be named differently depending on your Organization's specifications (check with your supervisor or Organization Admin for details). You may find that your Organization has set up the "auto-mount" feature.
