Custom Drive Icons in Windows
If you've found a Windows format icon (.ico file) (from the excellent Icon Factory maybe) that you'd like to use as a drive icon, the process is simple.
Copy the .ico file in question to the root of the drive in question, and then on the drive, create a file called "autorun.inf".
Edit this file with any text editor, and insert the following (replacing icon.ico with the name of the actual icon file):
[autorun]
ICON="icon.ico"
Save the file, unmount and remount the drive, and you should have icons.
