GPO works well, I realize that, problem is, it can also work against the local admin at the same time. This is a quick and simple way to secure the USB ports and still make them available to the local admin quickly.
Yeah.. each one with a serial #.... then you set up a DB that lists the ones in use.. if one does not report back, the DB tells you whose machine it was listed to.

Course if the user has a laptop and is EVIL like me, they can use one of these and a laptop drive

I found this at Right Price Computers in Houston a few years ago. Allows me to slave up a drive to a laptop and do what I need.
