I prefer the Unix style:
    filename
    drive#:filename
    /unit#/filename
    /unit#/drive#:filename
    /unit#//directory1/directory2/filename
    /unit#//directory1/directory2/partition#:filename
    /unit#/partition#:/directory1/directory2/filename

There is no ambiguity.  (The next-to-last path-name is used by Creative
Micro Designs drives.  The last path-name might be used by more-modern
hard-drive systems.)
