Hmm, well, that makes it (for me) harder.

If they all have similar mounting options (e.g., RO, things like that), and 
the mount points correspond to some system (e.g., /dev/sd<device_letter><n> 
gets mounted on /mnt/<mountpoint><n>), then you might modify the mount command 
in that loop appropriately, e.g.:

mount  /dev/sd<device_letter><n> /mnt/<mountpoint><n> <options>

Or, if groups of those devices have mountpoints that correspond to some 
system, then you could haved multiple for loops to do the groups.

Or you could put mount commands in a file, one line per file, and run  a for 
loop on the lines of the file, or some variation of this.
