Try adding something like this:

if(-d 'w:\'){ print "w:\\ is a directory\n"; if(-R 'w:\'){ print "w:\\ is readable\n"; }else{ print "w:\\ is not readbable\n"; } }else{ print "w:\\ is not a directory\n"; }

    I tried it with 'w:', 'w:\' and 'w:/'. In all three cases, it says it's not a directory.

      Are you quite sure that windows agrees that the drive designator is a directory?
        I tried these:
        C:\> perl -e "print 1 if (-d \"w:\")" C:\> perl -e "print 1 if (-R \"w:\")"
        and both printed 1.
