Just got my laptop all re-set up with Win 7 pro and Office 2010, including about 500+ updates. Decided to make a system image, needing about 100GB of space, so I went out and bought a Sandisk Ultra fit USB 3.0 128GB thumb drive. When I went to do the backup, it said the drive needed to be NTFS (it was exFAT). So, I reformatted it to NTFS, but then it simply said it couldn't create a system image on that disk. Why?
I plugged in a 2TB WD USB 3.0 passport drive and it created the system image to that no problem.
ps... I returned the USB drive to Best Buy. By the way, it was a good deal at $34.99, though the performance was not at the 150 mark as advertised, but close for read.
