I don't want to necessarily change the whole C: drive... I am just trying to add another drive for me to use for work.. Our root drive needs to be I: and I cannot add another drive so I am currently stuck.

I am trying to add another drive letter other than (C:)
I am in the computer management folder and have double clicked on my C drive folder and am trying to add an (I:) drive, but it isn't letting me assign the following driver letter that I want.
The only option is to "Mount in the following empty NTFS folder:"
I see the option of the drive letter above this option, but cannot click on it to assign my needed (I:) drive..
Thoughts?

Being the system drive you cannot change the drive letter away from C:. What message is saying is you can create a Folder on your C: drive then assign that individual folder a letter so it appears as a drive attached to your computer.
