About:
The Unraid USB Creator is an official utility designed to simplify the process of creating a bootable USB flash drive for Unraid Server. It automates the formatting and writing of the Unraid OS image, ensuring a reliable installation. This tool eliminates the need for manual command-line operations, making server setup accessible to users of all skill levels.
Key Features:
  • Official Unraid utility for reliable installations
  • Automated USB drive formatting and imaging
  • Simple graphical user interface
  • Cross-platform support (Windows, macOS, Linux)
Use Cases:
  • Creating the initial bootable USB for a new Unraid server
