I wouldn't recommend forcing the user to use a specific location (especially
a certain drive), but if you must, you can set the ROOTDRIVE property (
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371372(VS.85).aspx) to force the
default root drive to E. Obviously you don't need the ProgramFilesFolder
Directory element since you don't want to install there, instead just create
another of your own:

<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
   <Directory Id="Online" Name="Online">
      <Directory Id="Sites" Name="Sites">
        <Directory Id="INSTALLLOCATION" Name="Local">
