Robocopy access denied, despite having Full Control?

Pretty straightforward script:

ROBOCOPY \\servername\S$\SCCM2012\SCCMPackageSource\Files C:\Files /S /COPYALL /MIR /IS /LOG:C:\Copy.log

I can run this as administrator just fine, and all the files get copied correctly. However when I push this script to a computer as an Application via SCCM 2012 and run it, the log file gives me the following:

NOTE : NTFS Security may not be copied - Source may not be NTFS.
2016/07/27 10:05:31 ERROR 5 (0x00000005) Accessing Source Directory \\servername\S$\SCCM2012\SCCMPackageSource\Files\
Access is denied.

Both the SYSTEM account and the SCCM Network Access Account have Full Control over that folder. The folder is not shared. Tried with the /ZB switch as well, but that didn't make any difference. Any thoughts? Thanks!

What solved our case was using checkdisk to repair the indexes. chkdsk /f f:

Ensure that both sharing permissions and security settings allow full control. Windows enforces whichever is the more conservative.

Problem was resolved by Sharing the folder and giving Read access to the Everyone group.
