I am trying to install CentOS Mini 7 on my Dell E7240 but have no luck for the last 2 days. So far I tried
- Downloaded Cygwin and
dd if=pathToISO/Centos.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=8M - Always seeing
The media check is completed; the result is: Fail failed to start media check on /dev/sdaOR/dev/sda is write-protected, mounting read-only - I also used Win32DiskImager but same result
Here is my SSD and USB reports:

Is there some reason you want to install CentOS on an NTFS partition? I'm not sure that will work... Normally it'd be ext4/btrfs/XFS/etc.
