XBOX 360 Arcade multiple USB flash drives

XBOX 360 Arcade multiple USB flash drives

Recently I grabbed rather old XBOX 360 Arcade for my son who wanted to
play Minecraft that is not yet available on PS3. This console doesn't have
much internal storage and after resetting and applying latest updates,
only about 24 MB is left. I read that I can either add external HDD or USB
flash drive to it. I have couple of spare USB drives and one of them
actually worked. It is small (4GB) and I am planning to add more. This is
my secondary console so I don't want to spend too much money on it. Few
questions...
I see 3 USB ports so can I put three USB flash drives of 32GB each if I
wanted to?
I am thinking about not getting HDD storage at all as it is more expensive
and very specific to XBOX. USB flash drives are multi-purpose and I could
use those elsewhere after the console dies or I don't want to use it
anymore. Any downside to this?
I would like to buy games from live account instead of on physical disks.
The table in the link seems to indicate that it is supported but I wanted
to confirm as some older articles say otherwise. It seems like this
support was added much later after the console was released.
Can the installed game be moved from one flash drive to another?
