Is An A Drive Necessary?

Hi,

I thought I'd ask my second question now because I'll be needing the answer to it in the next step.

All computers that I've seen have an A Drive. I was told that a computer has to have an A Drive and it can't do without one. The kit that I bought didn't include an A Drive. Do I need in order for the computer to work? I bought a benq DVD/CD read/write ROM drive. Would that be sufficient?

 

I dont have one installed at all.

havent missed it yet.

 

Hi Adsrynalyne,

Thanks for responding.

Do you know for sure that one isn't necessary?

 

The A drive is the old faithful floppy drive - If you want one later, you can fit it later.
Sometimes it can be handy, if your hard drive is a S-ata drive, as some still need a floppy driver to load the sata driver - if you have an IDE, or-E-IDE hard drive , it will not matter.
