windows 8 certified?

The official product page from Corsair doesn't say anything specific about Windows 8 certification but it does state that it is universally compatible with Windows, Mac OS and Linux, as most USB memory products are.

I wouldn't know about windows 8 - don't know why it wouldn't be either...I do know that (and this is probably true for all flash drives) it has troubles going back and forth between mac and pc a lot. Apparently I abuse my flash drives, but I've tried to be better about ejecting them safely.

Do not know for sure if it is officially certified, but I use it back and forth between a Win8 and a Win7 box. No issues whatsoever. Very happy with the drive.

I have not installed Windows 8 on any of my systems. I can not provide any knowledgable answer.

Yes, you can still use the same license. It's encrypted in your BIOS and the change of the storage does not affect that. When you will be installing Windows 8 from the recovery disks that came with the computer, it will pull the product key from the BIOS automatically. It won't even ask you to enter it (you don't know what it is anyway).

The Control Panel says the Windows edition is "Windows 8", so I guess it is Standard. -Ken

When I originally purchased the PC it came with Windiws 7 but 2 months later Windows 8 was released therefore I updated to Windows 8 with a certificate that came with the PC

No. Mine crashed. Took 3 weeks to get Windows 8 on USB. Didn't work. Returned it. I loved it before it crashed

No it does not include a copy of or license key for Windows 8, Windows 8 ready means that it is compatible with Windows 8 (Meaning it's drivers and software for the motherboard have already been tested and working and are compatible with Windows 8 as an operating system)

yes, it is but after i crashed my windows and after a fresh install, the key chipped in the board is not registering my windows 8 because this laptop didn't come with windows 8 media.

Unfortunately, it is not. So you don't get some of the perks from Windows 8.
