ImageUSB is a free utility that lets you write an image concurrently to multiple USB Flash Drives. Capable of creating exact bit-level copies of USB Flash Drive (UFDs), ImageUSB is an extremely effective tool for the mass duplication of UFDs. It also supports writing of an ISO file byte by byte directly to a USB drive (*). The app can also be used to install OSFClone to a USB Drive for use with PassMark OSForensics.

Unlike other USB duplication tools, Image USB app can preserve all unused and slack space during the cloning process, including the Master Boot Record (MBR). It can perform flawless mass duplications of all UFD images, including bootable UFDs.

PassMark ImageUSB includes functionality to Zero a USB Flash Drive. This will replace the contents of the entire drive with 0s. Or alternatively to just Zero the MBR and/or GPT entries that exist on the drive. In addition, It has the ability to reformat even hard to format drives and reclaim any disk space that may be lost previously.

CD ISO images use different file systems compared to USB drives. So the direct imaging of ISO9660, Joliet, or UDF file system, from a CD to a USB drive, might not allow the USB drive to function in all operating systems. A reformat can recover the drive, however. As of V1.5, the app now supports the extraction of ISO contents onto USB Drive.

Note: Due to the forensic nature of image duplication by ImageUSB, please ensure that you select UFDs with a storage size similar to the image you wish to duplicate. For example, if a 2GB image is copied to an 8GB USB Flash Drive, the drive will only be able to use two out of the eight gigabytes of storage space. In this scenario, users will need to reformat the UFD in order to access the rest of the storage space.
