The system identifies the correct designation for a floppy drive through the BIOS or UEFI firmware during the boot process. It scans for connected drives, assigns a designation based on the detected drive's order and type, typically labeling them as A: or B: for floppy drives. The operating system then references these designations to access the floppy drive for reading or writing data. If multiple drives are present, the system uses the configuration settings to prioritize which drive gets which designation.
