Need to search USB ports for upgrades to custom LV program

Has anyone done this before:
I need to provide upgrades/maintenance to a piece of custom LV code that will be in the field. The program needs to check if any external disk devices (memory stick, cd, hard drive, etc) are connected to any USB port and if so copy the upgrades to their appropriate directory. Any suggestions or better ways of doing this would greatly be appreciated.

just check for directory info on your system.
Any memory device will show up there. Don't check the usb ports yourself.

The List Directory function will probably be the easiest way to check the current directory info of your system. Attached below is an example VI that prompts the user when it finds a new drive.

Good luck with development.
