Multiple computers sharing one TFS workspace

We've got a pair of terminal servers for a team of developers to share and I would like to configure TFS so that each user's workspace can be mapped to a network drive and available on both terminal servers.

Basically, I want it to not matter which server they've on, they'll have the same local workspace on either location.

As far as I can tell, that's not possible since local workspaces are tied to the computer name and I've been told by my admin that I'm not allowed to use server workspaces.

Is there a way to do this with TFS 2013?

If each workspace will be used by one person at any given time and the paths will always be the same, you could use the updateComputerName option to tell the server that workspace is now on a different computer.

If you want to allow simultaneous access to a workspace across different machines, that would cause significant problems with corruption of the workspace.
