Copying Files — General
The process of copying files from one diskette to another varies slightly depending on
whether you have one or two floppy disk drives.
If you have a dual floppy PC,
MS-DOS
software refers to one disk drive as drive A
and the other disk drive as drive B. If you have a single floppy PC (one floppy drive,
with or without a hard disk),
MS-DOS
software treats the floppy disk drive as both
drive A and drive B. The hard disk is usually referred to as drive C.
