There's no reason why it should not be compatible. The usb protocol is standard across modern os's and is backwards applicable.

I do not see any reason why not, operating systems are not a limiting factor, the drivers should work regardless.

I am not sure, but i would believe it will be. You can go online with Toshiba at their website and ask them for sure.

The ad for it states, "Compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and Mac OS." I have used it extensively with Windows 7, versions Home, Premium, Professional, and Ultimate on Crucial SSDs and Toshiba, Samsung, Seagate, Western Digital, Hitachi and HP HDDs. You should have no problem with Windows 8.1. If the target device on the included USB to SATA cable is not recognized in Windows, then you can boot from the software CD and all drives will be recognized. You just select your source and target drives and proceed with the clone, which takes an hour or two depending on the size of the drives and the amount of data being transferred.

Works fine. That is what I too have. I use the Windows 7 Back up program for backing up my computer to the Toshiba Canvio.

Toshiba Canvio works great on my Windows 8.1 PC (USB 2.0/3.0 ports). Haven't tried it on a Windows 7 PC.

Yes it is compatible with Vista. You can also use it with Microsoft Publisher.

I have not tried it, but per the manufacturer and the OEM packaging it is compatible with XP/Vista/7. I am running 8.1 and it works as expected.

As long as you have a working USB port it should work. I have no problem with Windows 7 64 Bit SP1. I don't see why it wouldn't work with Vista. Have you gone to HP's site and checked? Maybe a bad port or a driver issue.

I held off a long time for the same reason. Rest assured, Vista 64 compatibility was added with the the Power Pack 1 (think SP 1) which also corrected the data corruption problem and added other features. Note, it is a pain as you have to first install from a 32-bit operating system before you can install under Vista 64-bit. In other words, I had to connect my girlfriend's laptop with Vista 32 and start the install before I could ultimately connect my Vista 64 desktop to the EX470. It does work though and I love this product. I'm backing-up automatically, set up a photo share for my friends to access, can trade files with friends and serve all my music / video files to my Xbox 360s over powerline ethernet adapters. I recommend upgrading memory from 512mb to 2gb (HP has lifted warranty restriction against this).

Hey Matthew! This transfer cable is compatible only for transferring files from Windows XP to Vista operating systems.

I have it installed in a 64 bit Windows 7 machine and the install and operation is flawless. I would assume there should be no issue on a Vista system but I don't know for a fact.

I tested it with an old Vista laptop before I put it permanently on a Windows 8.1. It worked fine with both Vista and Windows 8.1, so I can't imagine it would have any problem with the OS in between.

The Toshiba official site writes: "Canvio Connect I and II must be connected to a PC and WiFi environment. (PC must be on or in stand-by mode)"

That drive is compatible with WINDOWS OS from XP through 8.1 64 bit. So it will work with VISTA. . Hope this helps!
