Question re: multiple builds of "Acronis Bootable Resue Media"

Thread needs solution

I just started using Acronis 2015. I will be using it on two Windows 10 pro systems and one Windows 7 Pro system. One is an HP laptop, another is an older HP mid tower and the last is a home brew. My question is can I build just one "Acronis Bootable Rescue Media" on a USB thumb drive and use it on all three, or do I need to create an individual one for each. Same basic question for using Microsofts built in recovery built flash drive, although I think I know the answer there is one for each system.

Also any opinions on which is best, or should I have both available. Thanks

The recovery CD is generic and not specific to any machine.
I would have both the CD and a flash drive available--just in case.

any upgrading to a new build or a new verson needs a new CD or flashdrive.

Check both methods on each computer involved. You need to know which works and which does not and you need to know NOW so no surprises later.

Just to add that you are correct about the Microsoft recovery, individual for each machine. Having both options available is good practice.
