Iconic design: Robust construction with Zen-inspired concentric-circle finish Then the system will launch from that device every time.ASUS ZenDrive U8M ultraslim external DVD drive & writer, USB C® interface, compatible with Windows and Mac OS, M-DISC support, comprehensive backup solutions included unless you keep the boot media in the USB port. That won't be a problem since the BIOS will move to the next device in the boot sequence. In the future, your computer will first check the USB port for boot media when starting up. If you do nothing, your computer will go to the next device in the boot sequence list, which will likely be your hard drive.


Start by plugging the thumb drive into a USB port. Otherwise, the computer will load from the hard drive as standard. If you're booting from USB media, you must change the BIOS boot order so the USB device is listed first. The boot order tells the machine which devices to search for the software needed to launch the computer and the priority of each device in that search. That's because the BIOS settings include the machine's boot sequence when starting up. Starting your PC using USB rescue media is not difficult, although it first requires an adjustment in the BIOS (Basic Input Output System).
