[Guest]

Hi,
i have problem with USB Disk recognition, since my network have mapped drive
in H:. and sometimes when i plugin the USB disk,its drive letter is H:. which
i can't see in explorer .
my question is: how do i asssign a reserved drive letter for USB disk ?, so
when i plugin it will conflict with mapped network drive.

You will keep on having this type of problem until you
move your network drive letters to the higher end of
the alphabet.

You can assign a fixed drive letter to a specific USB
device by plugging it in, then clicking Start / Run / diskmgmt.msc.
You can now right-click the USB drive and assign a different
drive letter, e.g. U:.

If installing a 3rd party software is an option then this
will give you configured drive letters for USB drives:
