rufus will make a USB or a CF bootable with the PC (which has the fixed SSD). The difficulty is making the fixed SSD bootable. The DOS working files can be copied from a convenient USB stick. For some applications DOS is far faster than the pixel-mapped systems. You don't need a luxurious Mercedes to move a box of chocolates down the road.

SSDs don't need any support that is not already there: they behave like hard disks.
