Ugh, the first tag of "no root required" reeled me in...IT'S NOT TRUE: ROOT IS REQUIRED.

What is DriveDroid?

DriveDroid allows you to boot your PC from ISO/IMG files stored on your phone.

This is ideal for trying Linux distributions or always having a rescue-system on the go... without the need to burn different CDs or USB pendrives.

DriveDroid also includes a convenient download menu where you can download USB-images of a number of operating systems from your phone (like Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE and Arch Linux). Around 35 different systems are available at this moment.

You can also create blank USB-images which allows you to have a blank USB-drive. From your PC you can store files onto the USB-drive, but also use tools on your PC to write images to the drive.

Rufus helps you to create a bootable USB, but with Drivedroid you only need to download the iso image and you will get ready to install the whole USB.

A very efficient tool, to create bootable drives, by only using your rooted android phone, connected to your computer by USB. Extremely useful, already saved me multiple times.
