Is there a way to cd to it from a cmd prompt? If so, use the same
directory/drive at the bash prompt (with appropriate POSIXification, e.g.,
use /cygdrive/e for e:). Otherwise, you're out of luck, as Cygwin doesn't
actually provide filesystem drivers -- it uses whatever filesystems the
underlying Windows can access.
