German programmer, Alexander Beug, launches a new stable release of his USB drive imaging program. This program helps manage backups and images of multiple USB drives. Using his
"USB Image Tool" you can create and manage per device and per usage flash drive images. Anyone who has been converted to relying on
Portable Applications instead of a laptop knows the need for consistent backups. The smaller more convenient flash drives are however, tragically easier to lose. Having regular backups is an absolute must and the USB Image Tool program makes it easy to create and track them by name, date, device or function.
With all the recognized uses for USB drives it's hard to keep up with them due to sheer number. XP install bootable drives, Linux LiveCD USB drives, Windows administrator password recovery drives, Boot and Nuke emergency drive shredding drives, Portable Applications, TrueCrypt images, and the list goes on and on. Even if you have 50 high performance flash drives to fill up with these boot images it's almost impossible to label them so you can find them when you need them. Alex's tool can let you easily track and 'flash' your flash drive with the image that you need. The software is free but you can donate to the developer to keep up the good work.
