You can make properties with the desired Drive letter and path (ore combined in one of course). Then add the folder with the property name between brackets ([]).

Extra advantage is that the path is now in a variable property, so the path and drive is configurable during install.
Hoop this helps [;)]

We had some trouble with network drives. We couldn't create folders on a network drive (even if we used dir properties) during advertisement. Didn't find a solution for this, so we used an additional vbscript.
