I've never used a SAN. It is possible that it has its own name

Does performing a dir /X from the command line show the short names
from the 2003 system? If so it means that there are APIs capable of
finding the information so I'd be trying to use ctypes to call the
underlying wide character FindFirstFileExW function.

This was hex escaped from *COSBY SON PROFILE/NYT18.
