Why not a for loop? I love it and it is the best fit for this arcane question:

 For %%a in (
 "D:\share\t1"
 "D:\new\t3"
 "C:\media\t4"
 "F:\save\bank"
  ) do (
xcopy /s /d "%%~a" "c:\shared\backup"
  )

You can use a for loop to do this.

Try:

 For %%a in (D:\share\t1,D:\new\t3,C:\media\t4,F:\save\bank) do xcopy %%a c:\shared\backup
