Locking drive letters
Problem with USB storage device My Book Essential with WD Smartware. When the computer comes out of sleep mode, the drive letter, as an example, has changed from M to K or the reverse and at times the drive it self is not visable at all and can only be visable by rebooting the computer. This causes problems for my Backup software (Acronis). How can I permanately lock the drive letter. I have tried Disk Management to no avail. According to Western Digital the OS, Windows 7 32 bit, is overwriting the drive letter allocation and falls beyond their scope of knowledge.
