Changing drive letter for ATRAC device in Sonic Stage

[coldfusionPaul]

ss (4.3) *always* seems to default to drive F: for the ATRAC audio device (walkman nw-s205f). my w/s is setup w/drive F: pointing at my server so ss can only see the CD drives when i want to transfer files to the walkman. i tried simply changing the walkman's drive letter to A/B (who uses floppies these days) but no joy. i have to disconnect my network drive in order to xfer files. is there anyway to have ss point at another drive letter for the walkman?

thanks.

Try setting the letter to something like G or further down the alphabet.

SS just picks up the first available drive letter for any attached USB devices. You can't really force it to use one letter over another. 9 times out of ten it'll always use the same letter unless you connect another device first. I would do as Avrin says and remap your network drive to something like Z: or X:

Start/Run: diskmgmt.msc

Right-click on the current drive letter and choose "Change drive letter and paths", choose whichever you like.

um, i pointed it at a/b....but "g" seems to work ok. geez, feel like some kind of country bumpkin ;-)

thanks.

actually "f" wasn't available & it wouldn't work with either "a" or "b" drive letters . kind of threw me.

sorry, i'm a complete newbie for this sort of technology. i'll try to do more research before trying to post again.

thanks.
