Will someone please affirm my understanding of Windows 7 use with advance format (AF) hard disk drives?

In using external desktop hard disk drives for backup of data and disk image, my understanding is that Windows 7 backup is not compatible with the newer advanced format hard drives.

If I buy a 2TB or higher external hard drive with AF and use any other common backup software (i.e. - Acronis,or whatever) there should be no problems, correct? It seems to be a non-issue unless one is forced to use Windows 7 backup, correct? Or, am I missing something obvious?

Thank you.
