Do you ever noticed that Default Hard Drive always be “C: ” why not “A:” or “B:”.I always think about that whenever I open my computer window why default hard drive always be “:C” what is the reason behind it?
Why Default Hard Drive Always Be “:C”
In earlier days they were using a floppy disk. There are 2 different sizes of the floppy disk. One 5 ¼ and another one is 3 ½.
For 5 ¼ floppy disk, they were given the name of A and for 3 ½ floppy disk, they were given the name of B.
So for the logical reason only they were given the name of C for default Hard Disk if we want to change the name of “:C” we can change with permission of admin.
