1. Quick (probably dumb) question;
Does it matter if the interface of the attached USB drive is Serial ATA or Parallel ATA (IDE)?
(though you would think it should not matter, as the computer "sees" it through the USB interface, I once encountered a situation where it did in fact matter...)
2. You said it works perfectly in your test environment;
Can you give specific details about how you are preparing and formatting the drive?
Are you using:
set id="de94bba4-06d1-4d40-a16a-bfd50179d6ac"
gpt attributes=0x8000000000000001
For any partitions?
are there any similar ids and attributes that need to be set?
3. Is there anything you would like me to try?

Attempt of the day
I tried again and then took a look at the drives, and discovered:
Original internal disk:
File System Capacity Used Space
WINRE NTFS 650M 251.01M
: FAT32 260M 107.67M
: none 128M 0K
Windows NTFS 445.04 28.01G
USB disk after running WinToUSB:
File System Capacity Used Space
WINRE NTFS 650M 12.3M
: FAT32 260M 104.68M
: none 128M 0K
Windows NTFS 73.52G 27.96G
Shouldn't these all match?
