Yes,
there is a directoctory structure in / like this:

/usr
/bin
/lib
Then we have the drive letters mapped to single letters:
/c/Documents and Settings
/c/temp

As an alternative
c:/temp can be used
or the DOS style
"c:\temp"

And the // or "\\" is used for the UNC names (Universal Name Convention)
//Servername/ShareName/Directory
