Just as a pointer, have you looked at some form of WebDAV?  Many CMS's (Plone, for instance) can do WebDAV out of the box, and it's rather transparent, especially with a frontend like Enfold Desktop.  You could then migrate one user at a time, even, if you stage it properly.

It seems to be more efficient and at least as secure as SMB/CIFS shares are.  And requires many fewer network 'concessions' to the protocol involved....

On the first page of a google search for 'WebDAV "mapped drive letter"' I find:
http://systembash.com/content/map-drive-letter-sftp-ssh-review/  which looks pretty interesting to me....
