Acronis Disk Director Server 10.0 - User Guide - Manual (Page 26)

Automatic Partition Operations
26 Copyright © Acronis, Inc., 2000–2005
Assigning a partition a new letter or hiding it will prevent only its applications and files
from running or opening. Other partitions will not be affected by these operations.
OS startup problems may appear if you directly change the letter assigned to the system
partition or a partition with PAGEFILE.SYS swap file.
Hard disk partition letter assignment in various operating systems is further explained in all
guide chapters where the partition operations might affect PC operation or booting.
9. On the next page, you can enter an optional partition label that will enable you to
distinguish one created partition from another.
In Windows, a partition label is shown in the Explorer disk and folder tree; for example,
WIN98(C:), WINXP(D:), DATA(E:), etc. WIN98, WINXP and DATA are partition labels.

those just created.
