The best way will be to turn
The best way will be to turn them into SDA (Self Decrypting Archives) which zips them up encrypted with a passphrase, you can then give to whoever with the passphrase and itll be able to be decrypted by any machine that can read .exe files (i.e. Windows)

Create 1 temporay group on
Create 1 temporay group on PGP Universal server & Create a policy & disable the USB encryption.
When you requied to connect the USB Just move the user to Temp group & update the policy.
We are moving away from
We are moving away from disk/volume based removable media encryption with our next product release and moving towards File based encryption on removable media devices. This enables the user to transparently encrypt files as you go and access them anywhere using a portable application essentially. Today that utility is Symantec Endpoint Encryption Removable Storage. I like Alex_CST's suggsetion of using encrypted SDA archives as well that might be a solution for now as we did have PGP portable that is end of life as far as being able to obtain the software today.
