    article TECH173724 .... covering block writing to USB not telling to how stop read from usb external hdd

    and if we block USB then all of the USB related device are blocked e.g USB printer etc

    article TECH106304 is not my interset i dont want to allow any of usb storage/hdd/flash to read/wrirte

    i want to totally block usb storage/flash/EXTERNAL USB HDD but USB printing /scanner allowed
