28Getting Started Guide

Locating the Drive and Assigning a Drive Letter

After you insert the drive into the PC, you can find the drive in My Computer. The operating system automatically assigns a letter to the drive. The assigned letter depends on the other storage devices connected to the PC.

To locate the drive:

1Click Start on the taskbar.

2Click My Computer.

3Select the drive under Hard Disk Drives. The default name is HP Personal Media Drive.

The default volume label of this drive is HP Personal Media Drive. You can rename the drive in the My Computer window by right-clicking the drive, selecting Rename, and then typing in a new name. Rename the drive if you have more than one HP Personal Media Drive.

You can permanently assign a drive letter to avoid the letter changing when you connect and disconnect this drive and other devices. Also, it is easier for a software program to locate the files on the HP Personal Media Drive if a drive letter is assigned. Some programs may not be able to find files if the drive has a new drive letter.

It is best to always remove your drive safely to avoid errors. See ”Disconnecting the Drive” on page 30.
