Explanation

A USB flash drive can be formatted as a bootable device and used to boot a computer, install an operating system, or run diagnostics-making it a valid and common boot device. HDMI (B) is a video/audio output interface and has no boot capability. OEM recovery media (C) is a recovery tool category (often a DVD or partition), but the question asks about a boot device type, and 'USB drive' is the direct, unambiguous answer. FDISK (D) is a legacy command-line disk partitioning utility, not a device.
