Had to change External Hard Drive; How do I make the change in DigiKam ?

[BuckSkin]

Thanks.
I am using 64-bit Windows 7 Pro and digiKam 5.6.0

I went into Disk Management and put the old drive's letter on the new
drive, but that did not fool digiKam; it just recognized the old drive with
the new letter that I assigned to it.
