Is it compatible with XP Pro or XP 64 bit? Does it make a complete back up of the partition?

Greg, I can't honestly answer that,it never worked for my purposes,and my computer was different than what you described.But,I can tell you, its cheap enough to try once anyway...you won't be without alot of money if it is wrong, you could ask seller though about those issues....

Sure Is, I'm using it with Windows 7 Pro. & it works fine. Nearly All of your old XP Games will work in Windows 7, With Few exceptions. Just Keep your Drivers up to date & everything should work freely.

All I can tell you is that it seems to be 100% compatible with Windows XP. It seems to behave a little different with my Windows 7 in that it backs up a little differently with Windows 7. As for treating it like an external drive, it works perfectly with Windows 7. Sorry I am not able to answer about the Windows 8.

I only have XP but as I interpret their specs, XP is mentioned only as a minimum requirement and to assure people with old systems like mine that it will still work. Surely it will work with the newer ones.

I use it with Windows 8, but it will work with 7 as well, not sure about XP.

I cannot answer this for sure but if your USB ports have always worked god and your running anything from Xp forward I would order it if it was me.

It's compatible w/Windows &, XP, 8, 8.1. The problem I had was that it just stopped working. The usb just died after about 8 months.

Plug and play on all my Windows XP Pro and 7 computers, so my guess is NTFS. Love it for size and the new 128GB is now about the same price for USB 3.0.

Works fine but XP does not support TRIM (look it up) you must use supplied Magician software to keep up speed. Also check out partition alignment. I think these drives are best used as a System drive with traditional disk as Data drive. (Multi Drive System). Make sure you create Recovery Disks for re-installation. Samsung transfer software will not transfer Recovery Partition. Also buy drive kit (not bare drive) with transfer cable and mounting hardware. Hope this helps.

Yes. I transferred my XP files to a Dell computer with windows 7. Both computers are 32-bit.

This particular drive is an EARS drive meaning that it is an advanced format drive which won't run by default in XP. Western Digital has set up a page to help users get it working in XP however I'm not an XP user so I'm not sure how straight-forward the steps are. You might be more interested in a EADS drive which should work fine out of the box for you. Unfortunately the 1.5 TB EADS drive costs 99 while this 2.0 TB EARS drive costs 89.

Yes, it will work on both Windows 7 and XP Professional because no software is required to download.

I use "AOMEI Partition Assistant Home Edition 5.1" which is free. I've cloned several drives, XP and 7, never any problems.

Yes. I have Windows 8 Professional, 64 bit. Works fine. Keep in mind it has preinstalled backup software. This worked too, but I abandoned it as I use a different backup method and didn't want more software running in the background. Good luck!
