Group policy drive map by group Membership

Group policy drive map by group Membership

We have different sites  in our company  but they are in the same ACtive Directory domain.
SIteA
SiteB
..
..

SiteZ

each site has drive maps  A.....Z

sometimes a user in siteA has  drive map A ,B,C , those drives map  to folders in FileServerXX , but he needs also to be mapped to SiteB drives A,B,C but those are mapped to folders in FileServerZZ
I wonder if there is a way for that user in siteA to have folders from driveA on FileServerZZ to be displayed  on his mapped driveA onSiteA with the folders he has from FileServeXX.

 I mean he will be able to see folders on his mapped drive A from both FileServerXX and FileServerZZ

Thanks

you cannot have map drive with same drive letter multiple times

U can create as many map drive until drive letter ends with multiple servers but they would like d E F G H and so on.

U can create drive map group policy preference item and provide time based mapping so that say morning 8 to 5 map drive D with file server AA and afterword's it could file server BB but not both at a time with same drive letter

Curious why you need the same mappings?
