14. USB flash drive
14.1 General Information
USB flash drives are easy-to-exchange storage media. Because of the fast data transfer (USB
2.0), the USB flash drives are ideal for use as a portable memory medium. Without requiring
additional drivers ("Hot Plug & Play" - except with Windows 98SE), the USB flash drive can be
converted immediately into an additional drive where data can be read or written.
14.2 Order data
Information:
We reserve the right to supply alternative products due to the vast quantity of flash
drives available on the market and their corresponding short product lifecycle.
Therefore, the following measures might be necessary in order to boot from these
flash drives (e.g. the SanDisk Cruzer Micro flash drive with 512 MB):
• The flash drive must be reformatted or in some cases even re-partitioned (set
active partition).
• The flash drive must be at the top of the BIOS boot order, or alternatively the
IDE controllers can also be deactivated in the BIOS. This can be avoided in
most cases if a "
fdisk /mbr
" command is also executed on the USB flash
drive.
