    Hey all,

    When I plug my USB key into my pc, it maps as the F drive. The only problem is that this is already a network drive so I have to disconnect it to view the USB key.

    Is there any way to map the USB as a different drive?

    try the below.

    Plug the USB drive into the computer and then go onto Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management. Under the Storage tree select Disk Management. Right click on the USB drive and select Change Drive Letters and Paths.... Press the Change button and select the letter that you want the USB drive to be assigned. I would recommend using a letter after E:. Now whenever the USB drive is plugged into that computer it will always be assigned the same letter.
