Hi benny,

When you connect the USB drive to the computer, right click on My Computer and select Manage.
From here go to Disk Management and right click on the drive you know to be the USB drive, and click on the "Change Drive Letter......" option. Change it to what you want.

This should (shoudl being the operative word) hold true for all computers you plug it into.
