Can I boot / install windows 8.1 from usb 3.0 with usb 3.0 media?

0

As far as I know it wasn't possible to install win 7 from usb 3.0 hub. It faild every time, I guess due to some boot or driver problem.

If it could be possible for win 8/8.1 I would buy usb 3.0. Can I do that with legacy bios or uefi install with usb 3.0?

It is possible to install Windows 7 from USB 3.0, see Why does Windows 7 ask for additional drivers when installing from a USB 3.0 drive?

Of course you can. What determines if its possible is the hardware itself. – Ramhound – 2014-10-31T10:01:54.360
