Most likely you will not have a problem with it. External drives from reputable companies pretty much all are compatible. It's a great drive and I'm running it on a mac mini so you should be fine on a windows.

I'm using it with Windows 8.1. It'll work but it will tell you it needs to download some software i.e. drivers from Microsoft first.

I do have Windows 8 installed (not 8.1) and works fine. I believe it will have no problem working on 8.1 either.

I don't know about the 8.1. I used it on a ideapad Lenovo laptop with Win 8.

Yes, and I currently use it with Windows 8.1 as well with no issues. It should work with all versions of Windows.

It works extremely well in Windows 7, but I have no experience with Windows 8.1. I suggest you check out the specs on line before you buy it.

It worked with Windows 8 so I it should work with 8.1 since its far more stable.

Yes, this will work with Windows 8.1. It was designed for Windows OS 7 or later.

I got it to work with windows 8.1. I ended up returning it b/c it stopped working after the 1st time i used it.

Yes, it works with Win 8.1. There seem to be no problems with it on the update system.

Hi Craig, You are absolutely right to ask if it works in Windows 8.1 since there are several devices not supported. What I know is that for Windows 8 this device works well and for Windows 7 works great. I strongly suggest only use devices that specs says that Windows 8.1 is supported specially for 64 bit. Regards...

I have an HP laptop running Windows 8.1. I plugged the drive in and it immediately started working. I would say yes, it will work with Win 8.

Yes. Aspire came with 8.0. But then it also was manually updated to 8.1. But this was almost a year ago. So not sure if they still offer.

It should work for Win 8.1 64bit. Just make sure that you have the right device driver on your machine.
