Default Location of things in V 2013

I was just upgraded to Office 2016 (sorry - I put the wrong version in the Subject field). When I opened Excel, I saw that the "Open" layout was different. I work for a business with multiple remote servers and drives I need to access, and there doesn't appear to be any way to "pin" these drive locations to the Open page so I don't have to repeatedly navigate through the Browse function.

The page has an "Add a Place" option, but it only allows you to select between OneDrive and Office 365 SharePoint. It doesn't give you any option to designate other locations, such as all the various drives I need to access. In addition, the page already has a link to "OneDrive" pinned to it, so the Add a Place option seems unnecessary or superfluous (why not just add BOTH options to the page and eliminate the "Add a Place" option since it isn't useful??? Doing that would take up the same amount of screen real estate and be less confusing.)

What specific steps do I take to pin server drives to the Open page? Thus far I've only been able to pin files, not locations. Thanks much!
