Editing existing Device groups. - 5.Aug.2008 10:27:18 AM

Status: offline 		I have a network who's users need to use USB keys as part of their day to day business. The users were allowed purchase their own brand of USB key as long as it was under a certain size. I've been asked to limit the users access through the USB port to external USB Storage devices but the company wants to allow the users to keep their existing USB pens while barring access by external USB HDD drives.

Is there a way to edit the existing Storage device group so that USB keys are still allowed but External USB HDD's are no longer allowed?

Sorry if this is a newbie question you've answered before but I've kinda been dropped in the deep end in regards to this.
