Get-ChildItem : The network path was not found

While running my power shell script to get largest files from multiple servers, am facing this error. Could some one help me to resolve this error.

Script:

$computers = get-content -Path "D:\Automation_space_check\Servers.txt."
foreach($_ in (Get-WmiObject win32_volume -ComputerName $computer)){
if($_.drivetype -eq 3 -and $_.driveletter -ne $null){
Get-ChildItem "\\$computer\$($_.driveletter.replace(':','$'))" -force -recurse -ErrorAction silentlycontinue | select Name,DirectoryName,@{Name="size";Expression={"{0:N1}" -f($_.length/1mb)}} |
 Sort Size -descending | select -first 10}}

Error:

Get-ChildItem : The network path was not found At D:\Automation_space_check\Untitled3.ps1:18 char:1 + Get-ChildItem "\$computer$($_.driveletter.replace(':','$'))" -force ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-ChildItem], IOException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.IO.IOException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GetChildItemCommand
