A method is disclosed for accessing a removable storage medium. The removable storage medium is inserted within a removable storage drive. When the newly inserted removable storage medium is detected, an identifier is read therefrom. The identifier is used to determine if a symbolic link to that medium already exists. When a symbolic link exists, the symbolic link is updated to reflect the physical path to the storage medium. When the symbolic link does not exist, a symbolic link is created linking the identifier to the storage medium. The symbolic link indicates a non-standard storage medium. The symbolic link is then used to read data from and write data to the storage medium.
