Does MakeMKV require a temp location to function?

HI folks. Thinking about putting a small SSD in my box that I use with MakeMKV but it will be a very small ssd (60GB) and I was wondering if MakeMKV uses a temp file location for building files before they are dumped to the output directory. My test that I'm doing doesn't make it appear as it does but just want to make sure so I don't have any problems. Output directory is on another drive, just wondering if it needs a full temp location to "work". Thanks.

As far as I can tell, it does not. It writes to the file as it rips and if I'm not mistaken, it should warn you if there isn't enough space.

That's what I think is happening as well. Thank you for taking the time to reply. Appreciated. Take care!
