Its better than that....you have 2 drive bays available from the front of the machine that allow hot swapping of hard drives and normal use or RAID configuration. Wicked.....

Before I bought mine, I checked the Buffalo website. It can vary depending on when you buy it and the size drives you get. Mine came with Western Blue drives.

I have a Windows 8 computer and have no problem using it. The hard drive I have in the case is from a Windows 7 computer. No issues and no installation of software necessary.

It can be either 64 or 32. Go here for complete instructions on how to tell which you have: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows-8/a/windows-8-64-bit-32-bit.htm

I just opened mine from Amazon.com. I can confirm that it has the blue USB 3.0 port on it as well as Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

Not sure I understand the question so hopefully this will help. You can add as many additional HDDs to your system as you have additional unused functional SATA ports on your motherboard and/or PCI card and space inside your PC case to install them. It's possible that some of your SATA ports may not be functional. If you're using a multi HDD external enclosure, you would need to check to see if it has HDD size/space limitations...

Hi to the best of my knowledge an experience on a Windows platform it shows as 2 separate drives. On the Mac os it shows as 1 drive.

yes - it is 8 - 64 bit. there is a down load that will give you a windows seven start page which I would reccoment. This is a lot of computer for the money. I have had no issues except with windows 8 -- and skype. A new version of skype is on the computer -- but I reloaded the old version which was much more user friendly. rob

Actually I have Windows 8.21 on my computer, functioning as Windows 7. I have two drives, that way I protect my software and can use a clone to copy it to the other drive and keep them up to date that way. Mine is a 1 TB solid state, quiet and very fast. Cost nearly $500.

This system comes with a Seagate Barracuda 1000 GB hard drive. Model number ST 1000DM003 that should allow you to retrieve all the relevant information for this drive. FYI - I switched it out with a Crucial M500 240GB SATA 6Gb/s 2.5" Internal Solid State Drive. The response times are night and day difference. It takes less than 10 seconds to cold boot the computer to Windows 8 login with the solid state drive.

Yes. It looks like you can put 2 drives in if you want. I suggest an SSD as your boot drive, and this one for storage.

This server supports boths hard drives... Also motherboard lets you install up to 4 hard drives on this server...

It is 64-bit, but it is 32-bit compatible so you can install a 32bit version of Windows or any other operating system. You may want make sure your motherboard is compatible.

That's exactly what I'm doing and why I bought this; however I am certainly no hardware guru. It takes a while for it to show upon explorer (4-5 secs), windows needs to read it, etc. I would go to the internet and find a forum that has a topic for hardware, giving them the model, intent, etc. Let me know what you find out. I am interested. My final goal it to set up a RAID, still need one more hard drive.

we use 64 bit on windows 7 and 8, it is a plug and play...nothing to install

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.

I managed to install it by installing Windows 2008 Standard but I upgraded the RAM to 32GB and the drives as well to the Western Digital 1TB 10,000rpm drives. It works but is not fast.
