Hello,
It depends. I have many computers for development and testing, they all
share the same logical drive layout
(via appropriate partitioning), but physical configuration is different.
On desktops I have 2 (or 3) physical drives but on laptop I have one.
Note that drive letters in Windows NT/XP/Vista/Seven can be manually
assigned to partitions
using Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Storage / Disk Management
You don't need to rely on automatic / default assignment.
Best regards,

Hello,
Yes, generally speaking any application no matter if it is 32 bit or
64 bit can be installed anywhere,
of course assuming that setup programs gives the user the choice of
installation folder.
Myself, I am installing programs on disk "F:" . "C" is my system drive
and I only have Windows installed there and nothing more.
I have 32-bit AmiBroker installed into "F:\AmiBroker\" and 64-bit
AmiBroker installed in "F:\AmiBroker64\"

Does this mean that 64-bit version may be installed in any folder
in a 64bit system, not just c:\Program Files\?
If so, is that true for all 64bit programs or is AB64 a special case?
Sorry, yes, I know its a bit off topic. And you're not here to
support anything other than AB. But, I don't know who I could
trust more.
Thank you.

Hello,
AmiBroker 5.30.1 64-bit edition (experimental) is now available for
download from:
http://www.amibroker.com/x64/
This is experimental version *only* for people running 64-bit Windows
and wanting to utilise *more* than 4GB of memory. 64-bit version does
NOT offer anything more, just ability to access more memory. It can
(and should) be installed into *separate* folder, so it does not
overwrite 32-bit edition (if installed). This version includes only 2
plugins: CMAE and IB (interactive brokers) plugin. 64-bit version of
IQFeed plugin is in the works
and it will arrive later.
Note that regular users, even running 64-bit Windows should rather
run
regular, 32-bit version of AmiBroker as it offers more
compatibility and
was tested on way more installations.
Please note that 64-bit version has BETA/experimental status and
in case
of problems you should use 32-bit version instead.
