I am having a quick question on FreeNAS

Â
Hello TechyV,
I am not used to any versions of Linux based software and so I am having a quick question on FreeNAS. I am running a windows Vista and I have downloaded the ISO file with the intent by putting a flash drive to my net book that I will go to hook up some of my external drives on.
This caused as completely crashed on that notebook. So what I am doubting that if I pull I pull the drive and hook it up as an external on my vista computer, is it able to install FreeNAS from CD, as I burned it to disc with the Active ISO Burner.
I know I can't install windows on external devices and expect it to work on a different computer.
Thanks in advance.
