We don't need infinite, 26 letters was more than enough!

I know a long time ago in a galaxy far far away the B:\ was used for the 5.25 floppy drives. The thing is, I don't even use the 3.5s anymore and in time A:\ will also be forgotten. What makes them so special that we can't touch them? I can set my optical drives to any letter cept A-C. They should consider giving A: & B: a comeback tour by letting it handle any drives we wish to set it to because I miss them

because they are pretty much worthless now.
cds are dirt cheap and can hold waaaay more data. usb flash drives are here and make transporting data even easier.
i'm not saying they don't have their uses, but they don't often come up with modern day computers.

I have A: but never had B:, however my letters go up to N:

 

[OdiN]

You mount them as virtual NTFS directories.
