The correct answer is E. None of the above.
In the original IBM PC, the first hard drive was assigned drive letter C, and the second hard drive was assigned drive letter D. However, this is just a convention, and it is up to the operating system to assign drive letters to partitions. In most cases, the operating system will assign drive letters to partitions in the order in which they are created. So, if the primary partition of the second drive is created after the primary partition of the first drive, it will be assigned drive letter E.
It is also possible to change the drive letter assigned to a partition. This can be done in the Disk Management utility in Windows.
Here is a brief explanation of each option:
- Option A: C is the drive letter that is traditionally assigned to the primary partition of the first hard drive. However, this is just a convention, and it is up to the operating system to assign drive letters to partitions.
- Option B: D is the drive letter that is traditionally assigned to the primary partition of the second hard drive. However, this is just a convention, and it is up to the operating system to assign drive letters to partitions.
- Option C: E is the drive letter that is traditionally assigned to the extended partition of the first hard drive. However, this is just a convention, and it is up to the operating system to assign drive letters to partitions.
- Option D: F is the drive letter that is traditionally assigned to the extended partition of the second hard drive. However, this is just a convention, and it is up to the operating system to assign drive letters to partitions.
- Option E: None of the above is the correct answer because the drive letter assigned to the primary partition of the second drive is not necessarily C, D, E, or F. It is up to the operating system to assign drive letters to partitions.
