It's EFI System Partition. See https://www.diskpart.com/articles/efi-system-partition-4348.html, https://superuser.com/questions/1113046/mysterious-new-esp-drive-in-windows-10 - web search for `ESP D: drive` brings a lot more results. – Peregrino69 Apr 03 '23 at 20:32

1If you installed correctly, you should have 3 partitions, not drives. One drive: UEFI, Data, and Recovery partitions. This is a normal install. – John Apr 03 '23 at 20:38

1It keeps coming back because it's attribute flag is wrong. So Windows is properly detecting a drive and assigning a drive letter to it – Ramhound Apr 03 '23 at 21:21
