Problem
Why is it that I see an drive and a drive but not a drive? Is there a reason why the disk partitions start at C? And is it possible to change that letter designation?

Low Risk
Because back in the day of floppy disks, there were either two physical floppy drives (A: and B:), or just one physical floppy drive (A:) with one emulated (B:) so you could copy from disk to disk by exchanging disks every few hundred KB.
