Fumbling with drive letters

Thread needs solution

I purchased the product in order to clone my system disk, that had the logicals drives C:, D: (called HP Recovery). My server was reached with the drive letter G:
After cloning the system disk, G: is no longer my server, but a local logical driver that by its content looks like a Windows System Area (see attached file).

In order to work smoothly with all my applications on the server I need to restore G: as my network drive and assign a different letter to this created drive. How can I do this without compromizing anything? I gladly appreciate your help.

To avoid issues such as wrong drive letters, the original disk must NOT be attached during the first boot following the clone or recovery.

If the original disk is still connected, remove the data cable and force the system to boot with only the single clone disk connected.
