Also, if you really want the files to go to the root of those drives, use double back-slashes, like this:
... dir="e:\\,f:\\,h:\\,k:\\" Otherwise I think the server might lop off the single ending backslash, leaving (for example), E:. In this case, I don't think there is a guarantee that the allocations will go to root. I noticed on my Windows TSM server, if I did this: ... dir="c:\" A follow-on QUERY DEV F=D showed that the directory was C:\WINDOWS \SYSTEM32, which is not the desired location. Doing this: ... dir="c:\\" got the desired result.
