    Not being facetious but you could write your own tool. It might take a minute at first but then it would be yours and be totes worth it.

    To index the contents of the drives, you can redirect the output of the find command to a file. For example, find /path/to/your/drive -type f > drive_index.txt will create a file named drive_index.txt containing a list of all the files in the drive.

    Then place all the file list in the same folder and grep that folder to find which drive contains the file.
