Well, In my particular case.. I’m kind of hoping for that.. I have several of the same make/model laptops, and my hope was to get a single “reference” image made for them, so I can copy to the rest of them, hopefully speeding up deployment. Then if I need to re-image one.. I Have a starting point. The theory was to get one setup with the required software, and up to the current patch level.. but I’m also rather new to imaging and OS deploying options, so if I’m barking up the wrong tree, feel free to point out errors in my plans! ☺

Think about all the drivers that are baked into your image because you are using physical hardware.
