On this screen enter the size of the volume to be created. The screen shows the maximum and minimum allowed sizes. If you only need one partition use the maximum. Once the size has been defined, click ''Next'' to configure the drive letter or mount point. The wizard will allocate the next available drive letter to the new volume. If this is not acceptable, select another drive letter from the drop down list. Alternatively, to have the volume mounted in an empty folder use the ''Browse'' button to locate, or create a suitable empty folder in the file system via which the new volume will be accessible. The wizard also provides the option to leave the new volume unassigned at this point. Note that these settings may be changed at any time by right clicking on the volume in graphical view and selecting ''Change Drive Letter and Paths'' from the popup menu. The ''Assign and Drive Letter or Path'' screen is shown below:
