How to set a Removable External Device as a built-in Hard Drive

hard driveremovable-mediasd cardsymbolic-link

I am using SSD with my laptop and running out of free space..

So I bought an 64GB microSD card as a secondary storage.

But, when I launch My Computer, the SD card drive is recognized as, of course, an external removable device.

And now, I want to change the SD card drive like a 'real hard drive' even if it's just a fake.

So, if there is any solution, please let me know..
Thanks a lot!

I tried mlink to make alias to my SD card. The alias was created perfectly but it couldn't fake the cloud storage service to recognize the mlink as a hard drive. nice programmers.. no fake allowed..
Does anyone know other options? Thank you.

Best Answer

Have you tried to:

Option 1

  • Run > diskmgmt.msc

  • Select the disk you are trying to copy > right click > Change Drive Letter and Paths

  • Click on Add > Mount in the following empty NTFS folder

and follow the rest of the instructions?

Option 2

Another option - overkill as hell - is to use TrueCrypt to encrypt the removable disk and mount it as fixed (done by default).

Cheers
