Drive B Where is it ?

The B: drive used to be (And still is or so I am lead to believe) reserved for a 5 1/4 inch floppy drive.

If you remember them, the years are passing very quickly.

They were the huge, bendy disks that didnʹt hold much data, and were made of a kind of cardboard plastic material.

( As an aside there were even larger ones but we will not go into that )

Fortunately for all of us, they have gone the way of the 286.

However, their drive designation lives on

If you really must have a B: drive, you can always add a second 3.5” floppy drive to the mix.

However with the way things are developing another floppy is the last thing one should desire.

Furthermore you cannot assign it to a CD, Zip, or hard drive.

Hope this answers your curiosity
