Why is there no B drive in your computer?

There are a millions answers to this question, and I have found non that answer this detail about no B drive. The cool thing even before 3 1/2 inch disks, is you could just have 1 floppy drive and still be able the copy from one floppy to another. The B drive can work as a virtual drive. If need to copy somehting and had only one drive, you would issue a copy command and it would hold the information you want to copy on a virtual B drive. Place the original in, "copy to b drive" take out the original and put in a blank and it would copy the files to your B drive. This we found was always a cool tool. No need for a second floppy drive.

Normally the second removable drive, A = first removable or floppy drive, if a second floppy drive is installed it is drive B. First hard disk is Drive C, second Hard disk is Drive D, etc. You can also map the drive letters to the virtual network connections, so that Drive P could be used as a network connection.


Why computer has not B drive?

The A: and B: drives on a desktop computer are reserved in the BIOS for floppy disk drives. As most computers only come with one floppy disk drive only the A: drive will be visible in file explorer. If a second floppy disk drive is fitted then both A: and B: drives will be visible. Computers used to have a B: drive. It was the second floppy drive. Since people no longer copy from one floppy to another, the B: drive (and on some newer models the A: drive) has become obsolete.
