You could for example create a directory in your home called 'source' and keep all your downloaded tar files there. You could create another direcotry called 'build' for performing the make which you can then delete once the install is successful, to save disc space. Of course you don't have to do this, but it keeps things organised and tidy. If you want to download files into random places all over your harddisk this will also work, it just is a bit harder to remember where everything is.
