Default drive letter for a hard drive is C
On my computer there were two hard drives installed, and the second was D
CD drive is E
USB ports are F, G, H, I, J, and K on mine
c
It is the primary hard drive or hard drive partition, but in today's terms the C drive could be a small part, and the primary drive could have an entirely different letter. It is most likely where the Operating system is installed.
The default annotation C: typically refers to the primary hard drive or primary partition of a hard drive from which the operating system is booted. The reason it is typically the C: letter drive is that, back in the day, a 3.5" disk drive was annotated as A: by default and the 5" or floppy drive was annotated as B: by default. The drive letter D: is usually utilized to indicate the default annotation of the primary optical (cd-rom or dvd-rom) drive of the computer. Due to the creation of hard drive partitions, (or devisions of a hard drive to create virtually separate drives) it is possible for one hard drive to have multiple drive letters typically ascending in letter from E: (Drive C: Primary Hard Drive Drive D: Primary Optical drive. Drives E:, F:, G:, etc secondary hard drives which are also known as slave drives.) Windows is capable of customizing the drive letter annotations to suit the user, (including the primary drive annotation of C:) which is why this is not universal for all computers. However, for Windows, the primary hard drive from which the operating system is booted is always annotated as C: by default. If the drive letter has been changed in the operating system only, a menu will typically pop up on boot up on at least one occasion asking for the drive letter of the hard drive on which the operating system is loaded. (Unless the motherboard settings are changed, the motherboard will automatically try to boot the operating system from drive C:)
Most of the time it's C/ but you can rename it what ever.
A: is the first floppy drive and is seldom in use today. C: is most often the first master hard drive partition. D: is most commonly the CD Rom in a system with a single hard drive partition.
Most of the time it is "C" the next drive letter in line would be "E" If you recently reformatted a single hard drive it will be "C" if you have another already formatted hard drive in your computer or you have a second partition it would be "E" So, unless you changed it, it is going to be "C".
As the "primary master".
In DOS and Windows, the letters "A" and "B" are generally reserved for diskettes; letters for hard disks start with "C".
four primary
ram is primary Jake
usually a second hard drive, flash drive, external hard drive, networked computer, DVD whatever isn't on the primary hard drive
Primary Storage traditionally was referred to as your "C:" drive or your primary hard drive. Today a common practice is to split single hard drive into several storage areas using a virtual container call a partition. A single Hard drive can have multiple partitions, a primary partition and multiple secondaries. Each haveing there own drive letter ex: C:, D: & E: could call be on the same physical drive. Your CMOS (complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) settings need to know the primary drive so the PC can find the "boot" or "system files" to load the operating system.
