Anything. Your C drive is typically the main hard drive of any computer. So you'll find the Operating system (Windows), applications, and pretty much anything else you put there on it. The letters are just so you can tell the difference between drives, but they're not always the same on every computer.

The C: drive is usually the drive where your operating system is stored and other files that make the computer operate - such as drivers etc. Additionally it can provide space for your documents and files.
A D: drive can be defined if you want to define a separate area for your documents and not have them stored on the same drive as the operating system, or to provide additional storage if the C drive is full.
Note that a "drive" does not equate to a disk. Its possible to have one physical disk, and partition this one disk as a C: drive and a D: drive

Normally we use C drive to install the OS and program files(SW installations).The remaining drives are used to store our data files eg:Music files,word documents etc
But it is not a must to use the same procdure.Of course you can use D: drive to install your OS and C: drive to save your data files
But Normally we use C: for OS
other Drive for data

most people who have a 2nd partition save all there data on here .
common sense says operating system and programs on c: drive
all data you want to keep stored on d: drive . main reason windows needs to be reinstalled now and again. you then just fromat c:drive and reinstall OS and all you data is still on d: drive safe

The C: drive is the hard drive that resides inside your PC. This is where every file and program is located that is on your PC.. The D: drive is either a CDROM/R/RW or a DVDROM/R/RW. If your computer is upto date it will probably be one of the latter. This is where you go to access any dvdrom's or cdroms.
