have more than one logical drive letter.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some block devices use more than one drive letter to refer to the same
device. For example, the floppy disk drive on a system with only one
floppy disk drive can be referred to as either A: or B:. This
function tells both if more than one drive letter refers to a device
and, if so, which drive letter was used most recently.
Notes: Function 440Fh can be used to set the most-recent
drive letter used for a device.
