I would like to rename the disks in my system, so that I can comfortably differ between all the removable drives I have. I know that it is possible to assign different labels to single partitions, but I haven't read anything about renaming the actual drive itself.
The Debian installation image however managed to relabel the drive as seen below:
lsblk
NAME LABEL SIZE MAJ:MIN RM TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sdd Debian 9.0.0 amd64 n 115,3G 8:48 1 disk
├─sdd2 NTFS_36GB 33,5G 8:50 1 part
├─sdd3 FAT32_16GB 14,7G 8:51 1 part
└─sdd1 EXT4_72GB 67,1G 8:49 1 part
(I created and relabeled the Partitions myself)
So I would like to know how that works and how I can change the disklabel (/dev/sdx), not the label of the partitions (/dev/sdxy), myself.
And as far as I'm concerned this is not a duplicate, because I am NOT looking for a way to rename the drives partitions (which is what I already did), but the DRIVE ITSELF (see output of lsblk seen above: The drive is called "Debian 9.0.0 amd64 n", the partitions are called " FAT32_16GB" and so on.)
I would appreciate any help I can get.
Update:
