I didn't try yet, but maybe you can work around this by using a symbolic link
to your device.

Maybe same there, assuming you have cygwin installed, and your filesystem is
NTFS. If you add a line "CYGWIN=winsymlinks:nativestrict" in your script that
starts the shell, you can create symlinks there, too. Device names on Window
are then something like //?/PhysicalDrive2

You can work around that by creating e.g. a group "disk", add yourself to that
group, then add a file to /etc/udev/rules.d which sets the mode+owner of that
device.
