Limit users USB Copy Rights

I would like to prevent employees from placing a 500GB USB drive in their workstations and copy corporate files. I do want, however, to enable specific users to being to do so. Where do I control such things?

I would say Group Policy would be the easiest\best way to accomplish this.

What you need to do then, is create a new .adm template, and make a policy setting for disabling the usbstor.sys driver on your machines.

If you are unfamiliar with this, below is a link I found that should be able to help you.
