B drive?

As far as I understand it B drive was usually for the 5.12" disk (those were the days). So now that has gone extinct, why is B drive still reserved?

I have never tried to reassign drive name to B drive though. Maybe I should reassign my CD drive to B drive

I must disagree. I used 3.5" between 1990-1998, and I can honestly say they were uniformly shit, although they proceeded to get worse after 95 or so. If that era wasn't when "3.5 disks were the standard for data storage" then I don't know what was.

In my experience, 5.25" were quite a bit more reliable.
