Can I change the location of the cache to a different disk drive?

I'm having trouble with fragmentation on my system disk which seems be the result of the Firefox disk cache. This fragmentation is causing problems both with Firefox and other programs. I have multiple hard disks and would like to relocate the cache to a different drive to see if this solves the problem but there's nothing 'Options'

You can do this be adding a new hidden preference, for details see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.disk.parent_directory

In addition to the above, I know of one add-on that includes the option to move the cache. The Super Tab Mode add-on is primarily a tabbed browsing add-on that enhances tabbed browsing features, as well as having the option to move the cache.
