That’s about it! You can also use Disk Management to format disks, determine the type of File System and see the amount of free space available. Usually, if the USB stick was not showing up before, once you change the letter, it will automatically pop up and ask you what you want to do.
That means you could create a folder in My Documents called pictures that actually points to another hard drive instead of one where all of your My Documents are currently stored.Ĭlick Ok twice and your drive should now have the new letter assigned. Just for your info, the Mount in the following NTFS folder option is used if you had right clicked on an external hard drive and instead of giving it a drive letter, you wanted to just have it show up as a folder on your current hard drive. If your drive has no letter or you want to change it, then right-click in the white space to the right of the drive letter and choose Change Drive Letter and Paths.Ĭlick the Change button in the dialog box and then pick a new letter from the drop-down list. By default, Windows gave my portable USB drive the letter H. I have an old hard drive (from old Windows XP PC) which I tried retrieving files from by connecting to my new computer (running Windows 7) using a USB to SATA.
