Using group policy (assuming win2000 or above) clients you can hide certain drives from appearing in my computer (although can still be accessed via UNC's, Run commaind etc) or you can disable access to either the CD Rom Drive (D Drive) or floppy drives but not both), this can also be set on the server as a policy setting via Group Policy (MMC Snapin), User Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, Windows Explorer.
