Wouldn't the 'device' listings need to be more like the 'Volume'
listings below (as opposed to the drive letters)?

\\.\Volume{a58472f0-b0cd-11d8-aba8-806d6172696f}\
  Mounted on c:\

\\.\Volume{a58472f1-b0cd-11d8-aba8-806d6172696f}\
  Mounted on d:\

\\.\Volume{118b41f5-2c5b-11d9-84cf-005056c00008}\
  Mounted on e:\

\\.\Volume{a58472f2-b0cd-11d8-aba8-806d6172696f}\
  Mounted on a:\

or even like these?
\\?\Device\Harddisk0\Partition0
\\?\Device\Harddisk0\Partition1
\\?\Device\Floppy0
\\?\Device\CdRom0
\\?\Device\CdRom1
