You should probably prefer the SUA local drive path prefix, for two reasons. The /dev/fs path is hardcoded in SUA, while you can easily set the cygdrive prefix to whatever you want in Cygwin, including /dev/fs. And the drive letter must be uppercase in SUA while it can be upper- or lowercase in Cygwin. So $ cd /dev/fs/C works in SUA and in Cygwin.
