So I just worked a job at another production house and they had their unity set up so that people could change user under the connection manager so that their drives would appear.  This allowed each project to move to different rooms and access their drives only, without an administrator having to keep changing which rooms have certain drives available to them, which is how I have been doing it here. (I learn as I go)

So how do I properly set up users for the editors to be able to log into so that their drives become available and the other drives go away?

You would do this through the administrator tool.  You can set up users, workspaces, and permissions.  Open up the admin tool, go to view, click on user management.

If you have users made, which you should, they are on the left.  Workspaces are on the right.  CLick on a user, you will then see on the right next to the workspace either R/W, R, or NA.  You can change the permissions by the little icons above.  Glasses and pencil = read write, glasses = read only, no glasses and pencil = not available to the user. 

I use this for my common workspaces where elements live.  I want people to be able to read from them, not write. 

Hope it helps, HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND!

Yeah, this is how I have been doing it, but the place that I just worked at had it set up so that an editor could go the the connection manager (the A in the tool bar on PC) and click "Change User"  this would bring up a prompt for a username and password.  After logging in, the only workspaces that would be available to were the ones that were assigned to them.  All other workspaces on the Unity would dissappear from the connection manager.  Just like if you were to go into the administration tool and turn off read/write access for certain workspaces, to that room.

Make sense?

sounds like thats the way to do it, through the admin tool.  Also, have you tried changing users in windows server?  They would have to change also.
