I have a WD Ext. Drive model WD2500B

I have a WD Ext. Drive model WD2500B for up to XP OS.  Is there a driver update for it that will allow its use with Windows 7?

Patrick55,

Unfortunately, there are no firmware updates available for this particular device. However, Microsoft Windows 7 should be able to trigger generic driver support for compatibility, and the device may need to be re-partitioned.

“Trigger” driver support?  What does that mean, exactly?  Is there a method you can provide by which I can find out if Microsoft can “trigger” driver support?
