How do I rename a physical hard disk (other than the C drive ofcourse)
I have installed a second (smaller) physical hard disk to put my Macrium Reflect Hard disk images on. Now I need to rename this hard disk so I can find it quickly when restoring in Reflect. What is the best method for renaming a hard disk that will appear in Macrium Reflect's rescue environment?

Thank you for the link Brink but will any of these methods cause the new drive name to appear in the Windows PE rescue environment?

Your Macrium Image should have the name of the physical disk you imaged. It will give that name to the drive you restore to.
