Hi,

The block using GPO depends to GPO apply on user login. If users that use safe mode to access USB don't log on domain, this configuration don't work to block access. Only if users use safe mode with network this show result.

To create a GPO that blocks USB Storage use this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555324/
