You can obtain the information from the Win32_DiskDrive WMI class:

Set wmi = GetObject("winmgmts://./root/cimv2")

qry = "SELECT * FROM Win32_DiskDrive WHERE InterfaceType = 'USB'"
For Each d In wmi.ExecQuery(qry)
  WScript.Echo d.Index
Next

If you have more than one USB disk connected you need to provide additional filtering criteria, of course.

If you want to get the disk number by drive letter take a look at this answer.
