Drives confusion

Guest

Let say I have two identical hard drives Seagate1 and Seagate2. I then
partition them into C:, D:, E:, F: with C: being my boot drive.

1) After a while I now lost track of of which drive letter belongs to which
physical hard drive. How can I tell for example if C: and F: both belongs to
Seagate1?

2) If I did something and it turns out I am now booting from E: is there a
way to switch the drive letter with C:?

Thank you very much for your help.

Go to Start | Programs | Administrative Tools | Computer Management.
Click on Disk Management and you'll see what partitions are on which
physical drives.

No. You change any other drive letter but that one.
