You can change the letters of all but the boot/system volumes from disk
management .. start, run, diskmgmt.msc, or my computer, r-click, manage,
and select disk management.

What if you want to change the drive name...
I have changed my hard drives fine but I am unable to change the CD-Drive
name as it says Zip Drive.

Thanks in advance

You can't change the one you boot from, or where the Windows folder is
(both probably C, but the second one *might* be your E. Other than
that, Control Panel - Admin Tools - Computer Management, select Disk
Management and look lower right for the graphic of the drive or CD icon.
R-click the CD icon or in a partition and there is 'Change drive letter'
