How about (untried but ...)
drivebits=win32file.GetLogicalDrives()
for d in range(1,26):
mask=1 << d
if drivebits & mask:
# here if the drive is at least there
drname='%c:\\' % chr(ord('A')+d)
t=win32file.GetDriveType(drname)
if t == win32file.DRIVE_REMOVABLE:
Or whatever DRIVE_* defined values there are in win32file
DRIVE_CDROM
DRIVE_FIXED
DRIVE_NO_ROOT_DIR
DRIVE_RAMDISK
DRIVE_REMOTE
DRIVE_REMOVABLE
DRIVE_UNKNOWN
