Dude if u r talking about flash drives then i have a solution
1. convert ur flash drive to ntfs
2. go to the properties of your removable disc in the tab for security there you should find some really good stuff about preventing from read or write or delete and would surely help for your ques.

But if u r talking about the port, even i have no idea.
