i bought a new (and cheap after rebate) 1TB WD green drive for a backup duty. this is my second HD with the Advanced Format. the first one required Intel® Rapid Storage Technology to work correctly in Vista: http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/3711283/Intel%C2%AE_Rapid_Storage_Technolog#Post3711283
this one will be used to back up a mix of a few home PCs/laptops running either XP, Vista, or 7. Acronis is my most recent backup software (I used ghost in the past). do i need to use the the WD Align utility for the disk to work correctly?
so far i formatted it with partitionmagic in linux.
thanks!
