Is there a way to get also the server name split from the path?

```julia
julia> splitpath("\\\\svfae01-solid01\\SED\\SE")
2-element Vector{String}:
 "\\\\svfae01-solid01\\SED\\"
 "SE"

```

I would like to get

```julia
 "\\\\svfae01-solid01\\
 "SED"
 "SE"

```

Maybe

```julia
julia> splitpath(replace("\\\\svfae01-solid01\\SED\\SE", "\\\\" => "/"))
4-element Vector{String}:
 "/"
 "svfae01-solid01"
 "SED"
 "SE"

```

Thanks. There is no built-in function that does that, that I may have overseen.
