Microsoft Active Directory Admin - Discriminate usable USB Disk devices

good morning, I have been trying for a while through policy management or other microsoft media to restrict the use of USB removable disks. I know that through Active Direcory I can enable and disable indisciminately or discriminating users, usb ports. But I would also like to have a management of which storage device my users can use (i.e., I want them to use only those that my office provides them with).

So far I have only found external programs that allow me to perform this kind of control, example: manageengine device control pro, and others.

So I pose the question: Is it possible to discriminate the usb storage devices that the EndPoints I manage can use? Without, however, blocking the installation of all devices example mice, keyboards, and others?

Active Directory has nothing to do with this. AD can deploy a setting if you already know what it is. It isn't a magic hat to do actual IT work.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
