If that is all that you want to do, it would be easier to just deny read rights to all limited users on those partitions/drives.

If you want to disable access to the drive and hide it from My Computer, so that it appears as if the drive doesn't even exist, you can do this with Group Policy settings (in Windows Vista/7 Pro/Business/Enterprise/Ultimate) or using a registry edit (all versions of Windows). Instructions on how to do this are in the related question, How to hide drive for specific users in Windows 7?.

the simple solution to restric drives from any user. go to specific drive right click and go to security tab, go to edit and add administrator select check name and press ok, then provide full access. remove other user froms lists except administrator. press ok and wait for the process to complete. Thus drive is nu accessible to other users. if other user try to access he will need administrator access.
