I don't know how to change the drive in Lightroom but assuming that you're using Microsoft WinXP you can semi-permanently assign a drive letter to your backup drive through the Computer Management Panel. Open that application, (sorry I don't remember where XP has it hidden, select Storage->Disk Management from the Tree. It will take a bit of time refreshing the display depending on your machines speed. Select the device you normally store to and right click on it. Select "Change Drive Letter and Path" from the drop down menu. Edit that to be the drive letter expected by Lightroom. Save and close everything. Next time you plug n a jump drive Windows should avoid assigning that drive letter to the jump drive.
