Assigning a drive letter to an Solid State Drive

B

Bobby

I have installed a solid state flash card drive on my
Windows 2000 box and I would like to assign it a drive
letter. The drivers came with a utility that allows you
to manipulate date on it via the nssd.exe utility, but I
need to talk to the drive as a drive letter from within
Windows.

I was thinking I might be able to do it somehow in the
system variable window, perhaps. Please let me know of
any ideas you may have. Thank you.

You should be able to do this with the Disk Management MMC (diskmgmt.msc)
by assigning it a drive letter, which it will remember across subsequent
removal/insertions. You should also be able to do it from the command
line with the "mountvol" command for a pure CLI solution.
