A driver generally refers to the driver hardware that drives a certain type of device. In calculations, a drive refers to a disk drive. Format and allocate a storage area for drive letters using the file system. The storage area can be a floppy disk, optical disc, hard disk, or other type of disk. Click on the corresponding icon in Windows Explorer or My Computer to view the contents of the drive. Throughout the entire control process, the driver is located in the middle of the main control box ->driver ->motor.
The main function is to receive signals from the main control box, then process the signals and transmit them to the motor and related sensors, and feedback the working status of the motor to the main control box.

A brief introduction
If you want to understand the information in a floppy disk and a CD, you must insert them into the floppy disk drive and the CD drive separately, so that the computer can recognize and process the above data information.
The floppy drive and optical drive are both inside the chassis, with only the "mouth" exposed, ready to "eat" the floppy drive and optical drive at any time.
As for the hard drive, since it is stationary, it is fixed in the optical drive, which means that the hard drive and hard drive are integrated. When inserting a floppy disk into the floppy drive, pay attention to its orientation. When inserting a 3.5-inch disc, the spindle should be facing downwards and the metal sheet should be facing forward. When the pop-up button below the optical drive port clicks, it indicates that the floppy disk has been inserted.
When removing, you should first press the eject button, a portion of the floppy disk will automatically eject, and then remove the floppy disk. Nowadays, fewer and fewer people use 5.2 inch disks, and it is also rare to install 5.2 inch floppy drives on computers. It is worth noting that there is a small indicator light above or below the floppy drive. When the indicator light is on, it indicates that the computer is reading and writing to the floppy disk in the drive. The indicator light for the hard drive is also located on the front panel of the mainframe. When the light is on, it indicates that the computer is reading or writing to the hard drive.
When the drive indicator light is on, do not remove the floppy disk from the corresponding drive or turn off the computer, as this may damage the disk.
A computer may have multiple floppy and hard drives, how can they be distinguished? We use the method of naming drives. The names of drives are all represented by a single English letter, A and B are used to represent floppy drives, C, D, and E are used to represent hard drives, and CD-ROM drives are generally represented by the letter H. This leads to what we often refer to as' A disk, B disk, C disk, D disk '. Each computer usually only has one optical drive, so it is often referred to as an "optical drive".
