Is sideloading a book to a reader as simple as connecting the reader on my PC (Windows 7 and FreeBSD) and do a drag-n-drop of the file?

This is a general question about the status quo of the readers out there. I understand that I'll need to research the specific reader I'll be buying to make sure it works the way I want to.

My plan is to never, ever put the reader online, keep all ebooks on my external hard drive, and expect nothing from the cloud, be it storage of syncing.
