Comment:

 You can right click on the drive and choose properties. It should tell you
 what file system it is. I have never tried this from a network drive. Most
 likely we're getting an access denied when trying to resolve the path on
 the network drive.

 It could also be network instability as Smb can be unstable when doing
 file attribute checks. I'll see if I can't special case network mounts.
