Is it possible to support USB Removable Disk's Partition in Windows 2000/XP via Filter Driver?

Dear All,
There are drivers for USB Mass storage which provided by Microsoft, but they
doesn’t support Partition.
When USB Mass storage appears in My Computer folder as Removable disk, only
the first partition shows as the logical volume. I wondered that, if I
provide a filter driver attached to Mass Storage Device object, does it
works?

Thanks a lot.

This is not USBSTOR issue, this is the issue of Disk/ClassPnP.

Windows does not support partitions on removable media.
