Possible? Yes. Without risk? No, there's always a risk involved.

1) With both nodes online and all disk resources online, open disk manager
on the node that owns the device.
2) Change the drive letter in disk manager, then close disk manager.
3) Use CluAdmin to view the Properties of the changed physical drive
resource and verify that the value on the Parameters tab has changed to show
your new drive letter.
4) failover the cluster group to the other cluster nodes.
5) Repeat steps 2 & 3.
6) In CluAdmin, change the display name of the physical drive resource to
reflect the new drive letter (Disk X:)...just to avoid confusion.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
JT
