Is there a way to list all the available Windows' drives?
import win32api
drives = win32api.GetLogicalDriveStrings()
drives = drives.split('\000')[:-1]
print drives

Without using any external libraries, if that matters to you:
import string
from ctypes import windll
def get_drives():
drives = []
bitmask = windll.kernel32.GetLogicalDrives()
for letter in string.uppercase:
if bitmask & 1:
drives.append(letter)
bitmask >>= 1
return drives
if __name__ == '__main__':
print get_drives() # On my PC, this prints ['A', 'C', 'D', 'F', 'H']
