Older computers used to only have one, but newer ones seem to have two (or one that is partitioned). Not entirely sure what you mean by 'what drive is this also known as' but I'd assume the letter reference which is C for the main one and D for the second one. In computers with only 1, D is generally used for the CD drive (and A for the floppy).
