Hey, I'm attempting to set up Truenas Core on an older PC for home use. The USB isn't working as a bootable installation. I used the ISO file from the official site and tried launching it with Rufus, but the system doesn’t recognize the drive. I've tested several known working USBs without success. My server runs a 78GB motherboard with an FX6300, 16GB DDR3 RAM, a bootable SSD, and two 2TB HDDs. I’m hoping someone can assist me.

Tried it once, but it didn't function at first. After searching extensively online, I discovered a forum thread mentioning a problem with booting from USB on USB 3.0 ports. Switching to a 2.0 drive resolved the issue instantly. Appreciate the guidance!
