Dunno what you mean by "FTP drive". You might have an ftp server running on a host that's accessible via some IP at port 20/21/etc. depending on active/passive mode. Then an "ftp-tree" sub-part of the file-system.
Much configuration is typically possible with ftp servers. And, it might be made accessible from WAN port as well as LAN ports. With authentication via uid/pwd.
Do be careful about allowing anonymous access- crackers will find and try to exploit holes there. And, ftp authentication exchange carries open uid/pwd, a major vulnerability if the packets traverse public networks (i.e. Internet.)
