Using USB stick as multi boot?

[lorcav123]

Is it possible to split USB stick into multiple partition and used that partitions as boot for Hiren boot, other for HDD regenerator and other?

Use YUMI.

From what I know , flash memory on usbs is not really meant to be used for that case scenario. You'd kill it quickly. I'd suggest getting a cheap external SSD

I think he misunderstood your question and thought you were looking to use the USB drive as the OS drive maybe??

 

I've used YUMI USB flash drive for a while now, possibly years even for all those bootable OS (LIVE USB), and OS install types... it's handy to have, if you don't have a particular one you'd like to use it usually has links to the websites to DL them too. I keep a few windows OS, many linux OS and handy bootables like hiren's, gparted and so on, on mine.

No, stick won t be used as OS drive, like I said it will be used for multiple boot programs, it will have also some Win ISO image ready for installation.

 

Before I always had to burn by rufus every Win image, hiren boot, mem test and other which uses a lot time to burn again and again.
