Hosting Company File On USB?

Hi,

I work for a small business with no dedicated office space currently and we started using Quickbooks Pro last year and we are trying to streamline our bookkeeping process. The current system is QB Pro installed on Laptop and laptop moves around to different sites as needed. This laptop is also used for other tasks which causes work to back up when I need to do bookkeeping.

I have QB Pro installed on my home desktop and I know that you can't use Cloud Storage options to sync the File between computers. Can you host a QB Company file from a USB drive which could be transported from site to site? I see people have used them to transport backups which are then restored, but I would love to be able to make the USB the primary location for the File so that it can be passed around instead of the laptop. Is this possible or will it cause problems similar to Cloud Storage options?

 

Thanks
