The "Temp" part is dynamic (is created at the operation and deleted after) and appears to be hard coded in iTunes 10, so I moved the "iTunes" folder from above to the other drive, then made the junction point to "D:\Temp\Apple\iTunes" (you do where you want I made "Apple" read only to avoid autodeleting and invalidating the junction. From the main menu, go to Settings > General > Update Software. The initial dmg files are extracted to C:\Documents and Settings\ All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\Temp.
