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).

The early drive controller interface that connects computers to hard disk drives using a 40-pin connector is known as the Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) interface, also referred to as ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment). This standard allowed for the direct attachment of hard drives to the computer's motherboard, facilitating easier installation and configuration. IDE was widely used in personal computers throughout the 1990s and early 2000s before being largely replaced by SATA (Serial ATA) technology.
