If we use several different external storage drives through the day, having assigned different letters each time can become annoying & make things feel disorganized. Here is how we assign permanent letters to each device to make things easier.

A small window will open up and then click the Change button.
When you assign a drive letter, please make sure to select a letter toward the end of the alphabet list.

Keep in mind that it will only be the assigned drive letter on the computer you changed it on. If you connect the external drive to a different computer, Windows will assign it a different dynamic letter. Please make sure that Assign the following drive letter is selected and select the letter you want to assign it and then click ok.
