In the UEFI, the burned flash drive was shown as " followed by the flash drive's name". However, since the ISO selected in the screenshot was "FreeDOS", the screenshot might be for illustration purpose only. It did not specify which file system should I format the flash drive to during Rufus' burning setup, so I selected FAT32 as shown in the screenshot. Next I tried was a tutorial from Tom's Hardware. I quickly realized that I misread that article because ImgBurn only burned to optical disks.

I find DBAN per How-To Geek's recommendation, but I am having trouble installing it on a 64GB USB flash drive and make it bootable on an UEFI-equipped PC.Īfter downloading DBAN's ISO file from SourceForge, I first tried ImgBurn per the recommendation of an earlier How-To Geek article. I need to wipe my Windows laptop's internal hard drive. Disclaimer: I am answering my own question.
