Actually it did change the directory pointer on H: but since you are still sitting on C: you see the pointer for C:, you must change directory AND change the drive, it cannot be done in one step.

The easiest way to get the results you were expecting is to type:
H: <hit enter>
and then type:
CD \my created <hit enter>

However you could also do:
CD H:\my created\ <enter>
H: <enter>
