What letter comes after Z?

Expand Post »
Let's say, for example, we have 27 drives connected to a computer via USB, or a network, or whatever. The floppy is A: and/or B:, the HD is C:, the CD ROM is D:, etc, all the way up to Z:. Now, what would the drive letter of the next drive be??

Re: What letter comes after Z?

i would guess that it would move on to double letters, such as:

AA
AB
AC
AD

and so forth... though i'm not so sure our current computers could handle 27 drives at once... that would require a lot of RAM...
