PD TRAVELER’S DRIVE LETTERS

Just as your existing disk drives are referred to by letters(A:, C:, etc.), PD
Traveler has two drive letters associated with it, one for PD, the other for
CD-ROM. For example, when using DOS/Windows 3.1, you may see
following message during boot-up:

.

PD is allocated 1 device(s) as D:

.

Drive E: = Driver MSCD001 unit 0

Under this example, DOS has assigned the PD to drive D and the CD-ROM
to drive E which are the next available letters in alphabetical order.

If using Windows 95, you can easily find the PD and CD-ROM under “My
Computer”. The figure 11 example has two drives icons at the bottom - the
Removal Disk(D:) and the Disk(E:), the D: is the PD and the E: is the CD-
ROM drive.
