Change, add, or remove a drive letter Windows 7
While that is the way to manually change the drive letter on a internal drive that is statically assigned, it may not be persistent on a external drive..
One could try it but typically on external drives the letter is dynamically assigned.
It is done for some good reasons, like if you plugged the external drive into another computer and it had that same drive letter dynamically assigned then the computer may reassign the dynamic letter in conflict and IMPORTANT drive on the PC and cause a program or OS to crash..
Since the OP is only using ONE external drive at a time there is no reason to worry about the drive letter unless it is a shortcut on the desktop.
