The default location is `C:\`, unless creating a Dev Drive using [Dev Home](../dev-home/index.md), in which case the default location is `%userprofile%\DevDrives`. We recommend using a per-user directory path location to store your Dev Drive to avoid any unintentional sharing.

### Can I have more than one Dev Drive on my machine?

Yes. If you have the space, you can create as many Dev Drives as you would like. Using a separate Dev Drive for each software development project would allow you to simply delete the drive at the end of development, rather than repartitioning your disk again. However, keep in mind that the minimum size for a Dev Drive is 50GB.
