This would be easier to answer with more information. But based on that, it looks like a [hashtable] where the values are arrays is what you want.

Example:

$hash = @{
    Serv1 = @(
        'User1',
        'User3',
        'User7'
    )

    Serv2 = @(
        'User2',
        'User1'
    )
}

# add a new user to an existing key

$hash.Serv2 += 'User8'

# add a new key

$hash.Serv3 = @(
    'User3',
    'User2'
)
