I don't know about the Kingston Digital Data Traveler. I had tried a Sandisk cruzer 32GB.Using a Windows 7 laptop I copied my entire iTunes Music folder to the USB drive and accessed it from my Windows 8 laptop. Interestingly I can play the music copied from iTunes on the Windows 8 laptop.Update:Using Windows 8 laptop, copied a folder from iTunes library across the network and saved it on a Kingstong Digital Data Traveler 101. Same good results.

Yes, see http://winsupersite.com/article/windows8/windows-8-tip-create-recovery-media-144098 it also supports the new Windows 8 backup and the legacy windows 7 backup. Google each to find out the benefits of each.

No it is not compatible with windows 8. It is a 2001 product and not compatible

Yes, the flash drive works with all platforms, Windows 7, Windows 8, OSX, you name it. If your computer comes with Windows 8, it definitely has USB 3.0 ports. So all you have to do is plug it into the USB 3.0 port (which is usually colored blue) and it will work at its intended speed!

Yes it is compatible with windows 8. It has a sloping palm rest leading up to the keys.

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.

I don't have Windows 8 but a quick search using Google shows it is compatible....

I have not tried it with Win8 but see no reason why it should not be compatible.

Yes this does work with Windows 8. It shows up as a standard external drive. I am happy with the one I bought althougj it is only USB 2.0. Good buy though.

The unfortunate answer is 'it depends on a few things' so the ultimate answer is 'no, not reliably and readily compatible with Windows 8'.

I don't use windows 8 but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. You install a 2.5 sata hard drive in it and it becomes the equivalent of a large thumb drive.

It works just fine in windows 7. I guess it acts like a USB CD device except with zip discs. I'm sure it will work with windows 8.

I am sorry, I have Windows 7 and therefore do not know if it is compatible with Windows 8.

These questions can be answered best by WD support but I do not see why it would not. You can do all sorts of things with compatibility wizard but windows 8 is an unfriendly platform for many reasons...mostly personal for myself.
