Windows 8 certified USB sticks are different to normal USB sticks as they have the "fixed" rather than "removable" drive status set.
This is so Windows 8 Enterprise can create Windows 8 to Go on a (certified) USB stick.
I guess in theory, Wintousb should be able to create a 64 bit UEFI based (windows 8/8.1 or 10 preview) usb setup with a (fixed status) usb stick. We know it cannot do this for normal (removable status) usb sticks.
However, Windows 8 certified usb sticks are pricey, and I was wondering if anybody has tried using Wintousb with such a stick (before I decide to invest in one),
