Question: Can you change an external drive letter designation?
When I first got my external hard drive, it was showing as drive “E”. All of a sudden it’s changed itself to drive “F” (the “E” letter designation is unused). This is causing a problem with some internal links (I-tunes, AIM, etc.). Why would this happen and can I change it back to “E”?
