Honestly, these kids...

Go to Control Panel\Administrative Tools\Computer Management\Storage\Disk Management\<your disk>\Change Drive Letter and Paths and change the drive letter assignation.

This will be then be sticky and survive reboots and other drive plugins.

Mac

Edited to add:

DriveLetterView - DriveLetterView - View/Change/Remove drive letters assignment in your system
and
USBDLM - USB Drive Letter Manager - USBDLM
are both free and make it easier.

Another approach would be to use Symlinks, Hardlinks, Junction points or Volume Mountpoints.
You do however need to do a bit of homework on how the NTFS filesystem works....

Junction Link Magic - Junction Link Magic
and
Link Shell Extension - Link Shell Extension
both free, provide an easy way to handle these.
