Yes, it works.
But as stated by other people, it is much more elegant (and will not
delay your normal boot process) to use hotplugd(8).
It depends also if the data stored on your USB disk are directly
accessed by daemons your start at boot. You may have to tune it.
Modifying /etc/rc is not really recommended and that file may be
overwritten during upgrades...
