is it possible to hide drives from selected users? I have a partitioned drive used for automated backup & I want these partitions to be invisible from various users to ensure that they do not open/save on the backup volumes.

I have changed the ownership & permissions to the BU drives (the source volume has 'ignore' set for o&p) but each time the backup has completed the info reverts all drives to 'unchecked'. Also I made 'others' to no access but this seems to revert to 'read only' for some reason.

Any help or advice would be great.:)
