extract rar files to folder

Question

I tried googling around and checked the man page but couldn't find what I was looking for.

Basically need to extract a rar archive to a separate volume. I know:

rar e archive.rar

will extract it to the current folder but I want to extract it to somewhere else. Can this be achieved without having to first move the archive to that location?
