I am attempting the laborious process of making an SSD drive my primary boot drive which seems to require me making a USB boot disk using the Acer recovery tool.  Needless to say this is way more difficult than it seems it should be.  Anyway, when I run the Acer recovery tool, it gets to a window that says I need to enter a USB disk with at least 8GB free.  I enter a USB drive with 16 GB free and it will not recognize it.  I plugged in a USB with 64 GB and it recognized that, but I cannot use that drive because it has important files on it.  

 

Why does this process need to be so difficult?  

 

How can I create a USB recovery drive on my 16 GB USB drive?
