Here’s what I did (assumes you are running Mac OS X before you begin):ġ. This should be simple enough, but proved to be a little tricky.
Step 1: Get the Thunderbolt drive to work under your Bootcamp Windows 7 installation. Plus several free downloads from the internet, see description below.
Lacie Rugged USB 3/Thunderbolt series, 120GB Solid State Drive MacBook Pro 15" Retina Display (mid 2012), 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7, 8GB RAM, 250GB SSD Most reports claiming to have successfully been able to run Windows 7 from an external drive, had used Thunderbolt drives, so I decided to get myself a Lacie Rugged USB 3/Thunderbolt series Solid State Drive. I was very close to success with this USB 3 drive, but Windows would fail during start-up.

I had a HDD in a USB 3 enclosure, and first tried to install Windows to this (using various guides on the web). I'd read many conflicting reports on the web, some claiming they'd done it successfully, while others said it would be impossible, because Windows 7 wouldn't run from an external drive. I don't use Windows that often and for that reason, I wanted to move the Bootcamp partition to an external hard drive, freeing up space for the Mac side on the internal SSD.
I needed to install new software in Windows, but was running out of space fast and didn't have the necessary space on the Windows side. Ideally I want it to clone directly so I don't have to store the 100GB or 230GB somewhere other than the USB drive.Due to the relatively small, non-exchangable SSD on my Mac, I'd limited the bootcamp partition to 50GB when installing Windows.

Also, everything I try takes so long, so I want to know what will work because I'm getting nowhere when trying things myself.Ĭan anyone suggest an easy way to clone BOOTCAMP (with Windows 10 Pro) to a USB? I have access to both Mac and Windows to do this from. I have more than 100GB available on my mac, but not 230GB and it told me there's not enough space. But the problem is, the BOOTCAMP uses 100GB but is a 230GB partition. iso then I guess I can use Rufus maybe to burn it to the usb. CDR image using Disk Utility and then convert it to an. Using WintoUSB seems like a great option, but I have Windows 10 Pro, and you can't use WintoUSB with Windows 10 Pro. I have read that bootcamp can have problems from USB and it's better to clone your existing bootcamp to the USB. I also want to use this USB to be able to test doing things without it messing up my original bootcamp. I think maybe getting my original bootcamp setup on the flash drive might fix my issue. The game does not crash on my original bootcamp and I can get the game to use over 2GB RAM and it doesn't crash. Also, the 32bit windows game on the USB crashes from memory errors even though I use LargeAddressAware. Bootcamp runs on the USB but I would say it doesn't run as well as on my mac's internal HDD. So I tried making a bootable bootcamp on a USB. I have problems with a windows game on Bootcamp that used to work fine, and now doesn't.
