   This works for me. You can have multiple backup drives, and this will   
   find the first one and identify its drive letter.   
      
   Set BackupDriveVOL to a list of volume serial numbers.  Or just one.   
      
   Lines of code are numbered so you know where they are wrapped.   
      
   [1]set "BackupDriveVOL=954F-4D81 054D-4F43 5035-0C6A"   
   [2]set "BackupDrive="   
   [3]for %%l in (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) do if   
   exist %%l:\ for /f "tokens=1-5" %%a in ('vol %%l: 2^>nul') do for %%v in   
   (%BackupDriveVOL%) do if /i "%%a %%b %%c %%d %%e"=="Volume Serial Number   
   is %%v" (set "BackupDrive=%%l" & goto :endsearch)   
   [4]:endsearch   
   [5]if not defined BackupDrive goto :NObackupdrive   
   [6]echo %BackupDrive%:
