I just looked at a computer that was being used as both a client
and server (for house rental software). What confuses me is that it has
two hard drives - one is the c drive (no problem there) and one
that is the hard drive that is serving the special software. What
confuses me is that under My Computer, there are 4 drives
(C, E, F, and N). F and N have the symbol for network. Since
there is only one hard drive (37.2 GB) that is being represented
by E, F, and N, I don't understand why under My Computer each
of those drives show something different. I am not very familiar with
servers so maybe there is something very basic that I don't know.
Could someone please explain how one drive can be represented by
three different letters which appear to contain different stuff???
Thanks very much!!!
