Unraid doesn't use images you can download. They check the USBs UUID GUID before installing. I am not defending this, but as it's going to be the boot device for the server this is a little handy feature.

    the unique GUID in the device's rom is what they tie your license to.

    unraid does have instructions and software as zip files for manually preparing a flash drive to run their software from. you don't have to use their scary binary media creator tool. see here
