Is it compatible with Windows 7, and the max of storage capacity ability is 500GB, is that right? It won't work with a 1TB hard drive?

Yes, it works great with Windows 7. I use that system in my computer and have had no issues with the drive. As for the size, I do believe that 500GB is the max. I am not sure what causes the limit, but 500GB is as high as it goes.

I don't know absolutely about the max storage...I only have 180GB but I would think 1TB would be ok. However, it is definitely Win7. it becomes a USB drive, so most OS should be fine.

This is just a case and cable, so you can put a small hard drive in it. I is not a hard drive. 1TB is too large. It is made so you can take a small drive, from a laptop that no longer works, andturn the working hard drive into an external hard drive. Hope this helped you. this is not a hard drive, just a case for a small hard drive.

This DEVICE is 500GB, size is right in the description of the item. Not sure what you're asking about 1TB??? Mine works with WIN7 Dell laptop and a 1.7GH HP desktop PC.

I don't have any experience with either of these programs, but being that it is solid state and 1Tb you should not have any storage problems. Sorry I could not be of more help.

I have not tried. I have tried upto 1tb. If your drive has external power supply i dont see why should there be a problem. However i think i read somewhere that it supports upto 1tb. Anyways i found this product super useful.

The GB's and windows does not matter. It only allows you to retrieve the data that was on the drive. But to be direct yes It will work. One last thing be sure to check if the drive uses a SATA or IDE connection.

You should be able to use it with any version of windows. It should work fine with an external hard drive as a backup.

I'm running it with a 4 TB drive right now. Works great. I'm running Linux. It all just worked "out of the box" without needing drivers, Disk Manager, patches, or anything like that. You just have to remember to format your drive with "gpt" partition table, because the default ("msdos") partition table maxed out at 2 TB and will no longer work.

I have an earlier generation version of this and it works with 500 and 750gb drives but not a 2TB drive, so there do seem to be potential capacity issues. The seller should address this in the product specs - it's a glaring omission.

I am using windows 7 pro 64 and it works well. I had to power the HDD on then plug into the computer and wait for it to show up. I did have one bad HDD that no matter what I did it wouldn't come up but once I figured out the order that I had to hook up the HDDs all but one came up and I was able to pull off all the data and format them and donate all my less than 20 gig HDDs. I hope that this helps

I believe the drive I installed in it was 1TB. Actually, as long as it's a 2.5 inch drive, the capacity, I believe, is irrelevant.

I am also unsure about the bay for a second hard drive, but mine came with 1Tb, which to me is plenty. You will be able to install windows 7 or any OS for that matter. Worst case would be that you may have to download a driver or two, but I highly doubt that.

NO. It appears that 1TB is the max size supported. The v1.06 firmware will support 1.5TB drives, but D-Link has been promising to release it since October 2008. See this post by one of their engineers on their support forum: http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=2663.0

Windows 7 can absolutely handle a drive this size. This drive works great with windows 7.

I know this is an old question. I am not exactly sure what the maximum capacity is, but I have 6TB total in my WHS (The 1GB original drive, plus 1x2TB and 2x1.5TB).

I use a 4TB drive in mine with Windows 7. It works great. Solid case. I love it.

It's the same connection as a 2tb, it's SATA3, any windows 7 or 8 will compatible, the major spec you have to look is your motherboard, it has to be a uefi compatible board to go beyond the 2tb limit, if it's a recent motherboard it probably is, just check your manufacturer and model to be 100%. Search for: 3tb and uefi motherboards.Hope this helps

It is actually 8gb disguised as a 128 GB drive. Windows will report 128gb available but if you test it, it only holds 8gb.

Since I used a 1TB SATA drive, there is no reason the 250 GB drive should not work. Beware, your experience may be different than mine.
