Insert the removable drive. Then right click on My Computer. Go to Manage |
Disk Management.
Locate and right click on the drive. Use "change drive letter and paths" Set
the drive for R (removable) or any other letter you choose. Now every time
you insert the removable drive (to the same USB port) the drive will be seen
as drive R:

The "suggested" method of assigning a drive letter to the removable drive
works best if you always re-connect the drive/device back onto the "same" USB
port. If you connect the drive to a different USB port, then because USB
ports need to "renumerate" the device IDs, you may encounter that the drive
letter changes. (I should know this because I spent October 2005 with this
problem!)
