When you say 'drop down' menu are you talking about the "Send To" option? If so, to add more options to this menu you need to show hiden files and folders and then navagate to:

c:/Users/(your user name here)/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows

In this folder is the Send To folder. Any shortcuts added in this folder will show up on your right click menu options, under the Send To option. Just make yourself a shortcut to your D: drive and place it in here (and add any other handy shortcuts you like)
