0 medhunter Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 USB Image Tool Try USB Image, i found it and used it to roll out 100 USB 4gb drives with encryption software. Did it work on bootable flash drives? From their FAQs Q: What is the difference between device and volume mode?In contrast to the volume mode, the device mode copies the whole USB device, including boot sector. So if you want to make a backup of a bootable USB device, or you have created a flash drive with more than one partition, you should use the device mode. The volume mode processes the first volume on an USB flash drive. Windows currently limits removable USB flash drives to only one volume. As long as the partition information on the flash drive doesn?t change and it is not a bootable device, it is ok to use the volume mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
