At its heart, cfadisk.inf is a driver setup information file. Most USB flash drives have a "removable media bit" (RMB) set in their firmware. This bit tells Windows that the device is a removable thumb drive, which historically limited the OS to seeing only one partition and restricted certain disk management operations.
