Windows can format your USB hard disk too. OK, so the HP format utility is capable of formatting your USB hard disk. The images contain the MBR, the boot sector and an empty ACRONIS partition.Дetails on the procedure can be found here. To try and rectify this problem, I have created two 'empty' images that can be restored directly to either a USB flashdrive or a USB hard disk. This results in a flashdrive that will not boot and any image created from it and restored to a USB hard disk will also not boot. Guide for Creating an Acronis Bootable USB Hard DiskД®DIT (August 23, 2007):- Further testing of the procedure detailed in the Guide has found that Acronis Media Builder does not always write the MBR to the flashdrive during its creation. I also want to thank K0lo for his continued help, suggestions and ideas throughout the entire process.

Many thanks to Menorcaman for his suggestions and help in getting the guide posted on the Acronis support forum. If you have created a BartPE cd or flash drive, you can use the same instructions to boot BartPE from the USB hard disk. This will allow you to boot into the Acronis media (True Image, Disk Director, etc.) from your storage drive with no need to boot from the rescue cd or from a flash drive. For those still using True Image 9 (build 3,677 or later), the process is only slightly different. Including both general instructions for those familiar with True Image and step-by-step instructions for those new to the process, hopefully anyone with True Image 10, a USB flash drive and USB hard disk can successfully create an Acronis Bootable USB Hard Disk. Several recent posts requesting instructions on installing True Image on an external USB hard disk and being able to boot from it have prompted me to create a guide on the subject.
