Windows 7 Pro Bootcamp on Basic Thunderbolt SSD

[JonDfox]

I have an iMac 21,5" late 2012 with thunderbolt.


I want to install Windows 7 Professional Bootcamp on an External Thunderbolt SSD (Basic partition).


I tried using this guide http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-install-windows-7-to-usb-external-hard-drive-must-read/


But didnt work, probably because it's not for Mac users + not Thunderbolt.


Anyone got any ideas?


Thank you for reply!


Best Regards

I think this thread has the answer for you, especially post #7.

I'm giving up, describing the compatibility between Mac/Windows/External Harddrives = USA/Russia/China, try to solve that.

I'm buying a PC, can anyone recommend me hardware and components for a PC designed for Video Editing + gaming?

Why not use Windows 8? The enterprise version offers compatibility out of the box for running Windows off an external disk (Windows To Go is called).
