Is the "drive belt' and 'serpentine belt' the same thing? 850 1997

I have a 1997 850, and need a short lesson on belt names.
Volvo recomends that the "drive belt" be replaced at 60K and 120K, but I don't see any record of that name on my maintenance records.
However, the "serpentine belt" was replaced at 46K and 95K, and "timing belt" was replaced at 69K.
Are the drive and serpentine belt the same thing, and the timing belt is something else?
