Will current USB external drives work when I upgrade to VISTA?

If I bought a USB drive now and upgraded to a Vista computer in 6 months will the USB drive still function properly on the Vista computer?

Answer:
The USB Drive should still work fine. USB is the defacto standard for devices and Vista is suited to work with it just fine. You should just be able to plug in the drive as normal and it should be detected.
Yes, it should still work fine.
It should, by then they will get all the drivers working with Vista.
pretty sure it will why do you think it wont.
DUH. usb has nothing to do with the os, its a mechanical thing. getting vista isn tlike getting a new computer thayt works different than every other one
Most drives are pretty generic, and Windows has a plethera of drivers that it can choose from

so in otherwords: yes.
Yes it will work just as well. There is no reason for it to not work.
