Originally, drive letters always represented physical volumes, but support for logical volumes eventually appeared.
The JOIN command attaches a drive letter to a specified directory on another drive. [11] The opposite can be achieved via the SUBST command. The command is available in MS-DOS versions 3 through 5. It is available separately for versions 6.2 and later on the Supplemental Disk. [1]
To use ANSI.SYS under DOS, a line is added to the CONFIG.SYS (or CONFIG.NT under Windows NT based versions of Windows) file that reads: DEVICE=drive:\path\ANSI.SYS options. where drive: and path are the drive letter and path to the directory in which the file ANSI.SYS is found, and options can be a number of optional switches to control the ...

[2] Reset places less stress on the hardware than power cycling, as the power is not ...
