Right-Click on them one by one and then choose Properties. Then Hardware. This should tell you something about your drive(s). -- If you want to filter all of my posts then please read this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/organize-your-messages-using-filters In step 7 select "Delete" With over 400 million devices now running Windows 10, customer satisfaction is higher than any previous version of windows. |

Right click - Rename. That's because the "drives" are really partitions, which are really folders. Also, if you need the label on the top of the HDD casing, it's in: Computer Management / Disk Management / (select disk) Properties/ General. |
