It sucks because I used to have a sandisk U3 and now... /shrug

To the point then, Ive been trying to find a cheap way to emulate a CD/DVD/BDrom through USB. The U3 USB drive I had, let me write an ISO to the USB, and it would read in the bios as a CDROM.

Not as a “bootable disk”, not as a FDD, it read “CD-ROM” (Just clarifying)

So if anyone knows a way to do this, a current model USB stick that has an abusable virtual CD layer, Or the proper name for such a device (so I can google it) your assistance is most welcome. Thankyou.
