Is there a way to categorize drives in File Explorer?

For instance, is there a way to have the DVD ROM Drive in it's own category (CD/DVD ROM) below the Devices & Drives Category?

No way that I know of, but I've not done any research regarding it since the way it appears is fine with me.

I haven't considered it but maybe it's like with NAS drives, can show in different categories based upon their content such as Media or MultiMedia.
