Good device to put Instance root directory on a SQL Server 2012 Always On Failover Cluster ?

Hello, I'm currently testing SQL Server 2012 AlwaysOn Failover Cluster.

I wonder if I installed it correctly : I installed the software on both server with the instance root directory set to a directory on a cluster shared module.

The reason why I'm not sure is because, when I wanted to upgrade from SP1 to SP2, I wanted to do it first on the passive node, but it failed for most of the components it had to upgrade. So I first upgraded the active node then failover and upgraded the newly active node.

I installed SQL Server this way because our system admins don't like us to install in on C:\ for their own reasons (maybe backup, or something ...)

I'm pretty sure there is something wrong. What's your point ?

Thanks in advance.
