Yes. I purchased this hard drive as replacement for a computer that already had Windows 7 (the hard drive died). Installed the operating system, drivers, etc. on the new hard drive and the computer is running fine.

The drive will handle Windows 7 just fine. But it is a micro sata drive. Hence the Msata. It will not work in a sata drive slot.

This drive is plug and play. I used it in windows 7 and windows 8 and it worked perfectly. There is no need to install any driver to use it.

Yes, I am using W7 and have no problems. It will take a bit more of available disc space for the extra stuff included that I will not use myself. Seems like a good external HD. (I have the 500 GB model)

I believe it is Windows 7 compatible only. Tech Support may be able to offer some other information though

I have many of these drives running both Ubuntu and Win7.. No issues at all. Be sure to enable TRIM in Ubuntu, I heard 14.04LTS will do it automatically though.

Drives shouldn't have a problem functioning with either 32 bit or 64 bit. Programs are what cause incompatibility. If it doesn't work, reformat it (I'd recommend NTFS for Windows) and it should be fine.

No problems using with Windows 7. USB plugs in and operates great. This is also far far better than the old bigger version of this drive. There are dozens of fun projects accomplished with this as well. DVD copying etc etc

Yes it is! No problems with Windows 7. I installed it 4 months ago and it works great. Make sure you load the latest drivers from AMD's site.
