# Etcher
|
|
|
|
> Flash OS images to SD cards & USB drives, safely and easily.
|
|
|
|
Etcher is a powerful OS image flasher built with web technologies to ensure
|
|
flashing an SDCard or USB drive is a pleasant and safe experience. It protects
|
|
you from accidentally writing to your hard-drives, ensures every byte of data
|
|
was written correctly, and much more. It can also directly flash Raspberry Pi devices that support [USB device boot mode](https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/raspberry-pi.html#usb-device-boot-mode).
