Haha, it must be achievable using other means. Thanks for your sharing!
But personally, I still want to get a pure DOS solution. DOS is called Disk Operating System. Theoretically, this function should be achievable. Maybe there are fewer internal materials in DOS, so this function seems difficult to achieve in our view.
Maybe this problem is really not easy to solve, but fortunately, it can make us think more deeply during our usual study!

Pure DOS commands, that is, commands running in DOS 7.1? This is a bit difficult...

Under pure DOS, I have 5 tools that can solve your problem, assuming a mixed partition of FAT and NTFS:
Tools that need to load the NTFS driver:
func
Tools that don't need to load the NTFS driver:
dspt
omnifs
ghost
gdisk
The above may need to be combined with other string extraction tools like find and strings to have practical meaning (put into batch processing). Only the idea is provided, and you need to find the method yourself.

It can be done under CMD but not yet implemented in batch processing. First, enter diskpart by typing diskpart and pressing Enter under CMD. Then type list volume and press Enter to see all the disks on your machine. This hasn't been studied in batch processing yet.

Pure DOS
drv.exe | find /C ":"
This returns the total number of drive letters
drv.exe | find /C "A:"
drv.exe | find /C "B:"
Floppy drives can be filtered out via batch processing
Then use findcd.exe to filter out CD-ROM drive letters, and you'll get the number of hard drive letters
