Windows boot USB, re Samsung 830 firmware upgrades...

I have 2012 cMPB due to be delivered Monday, and a Samsung 830/512gb also on the way... I hesitated to get the 830 at first because a firmware upgrade has to be run from Windows, but went for it because of how well it is mentioned in various threads...

I know nothing of Windows, and will not be using Bootcamp...Worse case I figured is take it out and hook it via usb/sata3 cable to a friend's Windows machine...

But it occurs to me to wonder, and ask those who might know, is it possible to create a Windows boot drive, say on a USB thumbdrive partition with the other partition being a Mountain Lion boot/install, per directions pointed at in various threads here, and which I intend to do in any case... And then also install a browser on that Windows partition, so that when called for I can boot to Windows, go to the Samsung website, download whatever necessary, upgrade the 530 firmware, and after which shut down and reboot normally with the new firmware all in place..?

Then of course, if it is doable, is the HOW, especially for someone such as moi, with no experience of Windows... I'm sure I can borrow a Windows install disk from the same friend who might help with some of the Window aspects, but past that I have no idea, not even knowing if it is possible...

So the short of it is; is it possible, and if so, how..?

Thanks for all the great guidance I have found in these threads over the last couple weeks of coming to this point... I'm coming from a late 2006 MBP, osx10.4.11... Big changes ahead...

 

Would having a small Bootcamp/Windows partition (8-10 gig..?) just being there make me vulnerable to Windows malware/viruses even though I will be booted in Mountain Lion..?

If not then this may be an elegant solution and I thank you for suggesting it, even as hesitant as I am to get into Bootcamp and Windows... Get past my resistance and I might even learn something..?
