You do not need a final slash.

Note that your directory path looks strange. What OS are you on?

Try M-: (find-file "\Volumes\renato07") <RET>
If it does not work (Emacs does not open dired listing), the path should
be corrected. Try M-x dired and navigate to your desired directory. The
correct path should be displayed at the beginning of dired buffer.
