Good plan, I have a 32 GB flash drive just to keep the latest version of Windows on. Installing from USB solves 90% of the install problems in my experience. I also update it every few months to make sure the latest security updates are on there.
The reason why USB is better is because it jumps through the UEFI hoops for you. If you do DVD, the only easy install path is MBR. DVD + UEFI, last time I tried, required manually creating partitions.
