The D: is a CD-ROM. Geez!
Dang whippersnappers.
Nothing like the beauty of windows having a modern UI with a hard drive icon drawn by some intern in 1998
If it makes you feel any better the intern got hired full-time.
And laid off 6 months later
Nothing like the beauty of a toaster icon for a keyboard
The best part about this is that the keyboard company likely followed tutorials for building their device drivers and never substituted the default image (which is a fictitious company called Fabrikam):

And someone is now selling attire under the Fabrikam name with just the page title as “Microsoft”

No, CD-ROM is
/cdromYou probably meant /dev/cdrom which as far as I know is just a link to CD-ROM drive. In case of SATA and SCSI drives it links to /dev/sr(number) and in case of IDE drive to /dev/hd(letter).

5 1/4 big booty drive
Lol the best part about that is, it spawned from floppy disks. It hasn’t changed. And there’s no official docs on why. Instead search results are literally StackOverflow and forum questions on why it’s not a thing.

Even better, the cable twist to differentiate on the hardware level.

Gottemmm
