Is there anyway to place a Variable in the Path of the "Client Working Folder:" so I can still use "Enforce Consistant Working Folder for All Clients" yet be able to place it on different disk partitions or spindles as hardware allows.

The syntax for variables in the working folder path would be like any Windows environment variables (%USERPROFILE%, %SYSTEMDRIVE%, etc.). I've never tried that; It might work, and you could set a custom environment variable on each machine to point wherever you like.
I have actually been solving the same problem with SUBST in a custom command script for as long as we've used Vault Workgroup (since the beginning of the product); haven't had a single problem yet, and I think it's a bit more refined.
Here is an example of my script (saved as VaultSubst.cmd):
@echo off set _VW=C:\VaultWorkspace if not exist %_VW% (md %_VW%) subst V: %_VW%
Usage:
By using SUBST, you get a convenient "drive" at V: that will take you directly to the Vault workspace on any machine. If you prefer not to see the additional drive letter in Explorer, I think you could make and deploy a similar script that would use symbolic links (MKLINK) instead.
