Two drives nearly all computers have are a floppy drive (drive A:) and a hard drive (drive C:). If you have more than one drive, then they are named D:, E: and so on. If you have a CD drive or a DVD drive, it also is named with a letter. Opening a hard drive is easy. Just double click the icon representing the drive you want to open. Files and folders contained in the drive are now shown in the opened window. Now for opening a folder, double click its icon.
