Peter,

The "Drive Type" option is a wrapper around the GetDriveType Windows API. If you pass an UNC notation to GetDriveType, a trailing backslash is required. It should then return $DRIVE_REMOTE$ in your case.

For example: \\ServerName\Drive\

If you still get $DRIVE_NO_ROOT_DIR$, please see:

Does this help?
