• Server Vs Hard Drive

In Windows Server 2012 R2 I am unable to find the option to reassign the drive letter for a CD/DVD drive where the disks are normally managed. So I can reassign for hard drives, but not for optical drives? What gives?

Since compmgmt.msc runs the Server Manager, I am wondering which method I am supposed to use.

2017-5-26  Acronis Disk Director 12 is an award. You can organize your hard disk and volume. Acronis Disk Director Corporate is specifically designed for server-based.

So how can I reassign the drive letter for optical drives without going through hoops on Windows Server 2012 R2?

Run diskmgmt.msc just like previous versions of Windows.

It is really easy to get to by default. You will probably even be a bit annoyed you didn't notice it.

In the exams, Naruto catches Boruto cheating and disqualifies his son. Before Naruto leaves the arena, the two figures Sasuke previously encountered, and, appear and destroy it.

Simply right-click on the Windows logo button. Then start the Computer Management. Most of the other common tools you use for managing your system are also linked there.

FYI, compmgmt.msc is not the Server Manager. The link in the shell was changed on 'This PC' to point to server manager, clicking 'Manage' no longer calls 'compmgmt.msc', but it is still available.

Create a shortcut to 'compmgmt.msc' or 'diskmgmt.msc' and you can pin those to start or taskbar. I am not aware of any registry setting to convert the 'This PC' Manage link back to compgmt.msc as of yet, but if I find one I will ping back.

I am talking about 2012-R2 in case it matters.

Alternatively, you can simply run:

To get the same information in powershell.

Right-click the start button, and choose Disk Management from the pop-up menu.Alternatively, you could click on 'Tools' in Server Manager, and then click 'Computer Management' from the drop-down menu. Disk Management will be in the tree within the left pane.
