Reserving A Drive Letter For An External Enclosure

Recommended Posts

As I know windows can have up to 26 drives and it appears to be the limit, due to drive letters assigned A: to Z:.

There are alternatives to 26 drives that are, effectively, limitless. But it's not the same, it's the same as mounting drives in some directory as I understand, I've found a source about it here:

Basically it says that you can map a drive to a folder rather than to a letter. But I guess for a lot of things at home and work 26 partitions is enough :unsure: At least today.

Linux uses folders for mount points for drives and devices
