3. If u want to hide drive E then type “select volume 3″ without quote
then a message will appear in same winwods { Volume 3 is the selected volume}
4.now type ” remove letter E” without quote
now a message will come { Diskpart Removed the Drive letter }
sometime it requires the reboot the computer .
Diskpart will remove the letter .Windows XP is not having capabilty to identify the unkown volume.
Don’t afraid ur Data will ramin same .
to Come back the Drive repeat the process . but in 4th step which is shown in this post replace ” remove” to “assign”

The above method won’t work for the drive containing Operating System
and it can also be done using System Manager>Storage Manager
