Media Card Reader Drive Assignments

I would like to create either a pre-installation or a post installation task that will change the drive letter assigments of all the silly media card drives that are installed on the Dell Optiplex 990's we have in our organization.

Any idea how I can do this? 

thanks in advance.

You can do this thru a diskpart script as a post install task like you use to create the volumes in the preinstall phase.  You need to know what volume and letters they get assigned currently by using diskpart at a command prompt and doing a list volume.  then create a script file.

I changed the letter e to m above with this script

select volume 2

remove letter=e

assign letter=m

rem to do the next you would continue the script:

select volume 3

remove letter=f

assign letter=n

rem keep going till you have them all changed and then:

exit
