Best Answer

No. A computer can have any number of drives. A: and B: are reserved for floppy drives, and C: is reserved for the first hard drive partition. The rest of the letters can be assigned to anything. D is usually given to either a second partition on the hard drive, or a CD/DVD drive. However, some computers, such as netbooks, may only have one partition on the drive and not have a CD or DVD drive. If you were to plug in a drive, such as a USB Flash drive or external hard drive, then it would become drive D:.

Why you use a D drive to save your file?

If you have a D drive on your computer, then you can save files onto it. You might do so to have your data files on a particular drive, rather than having them all on the C drive. Your C drive is usually used for storing the actual programs. So it can be useful to keep your data on a separate disk. It is a good organisational strategy. It can make it easier to see how much data you have, as you know that anything that is on the D drive are data files. If there is a crash on the C drive, you could still have all your files safe on the D drive. So there are lots of good reasons for doing it.


Where is the c drive and a d drive and a f drive?

Well, the c drive is usually the first hard disk drive (hard drive for short) in your computer, with d, e, and f being additional hard drives, or at least spaces that if used all at once would lead to an f drive. As for the a and b drives, they are reserved for floppy disk drives, or floppies for short. The C drive is what came with your computer. It is the default drive where all of your system info, & programs. The D drive could be a "partition" which is still on the C drive, but set up as a separate drive. The CD-ROM is usually labeled as the D drive. The F drive could be a memory stick(or other storage media) that is in a USB port. Drives D, E, F, G, and so on could also be additional hard drives that have been installed on your computer.
