I have Windows 7. I like it. I want to buy a 12 TB, !4 TB or 16 TB external hard drive that will work with my 64 bit Windows 7 hard drive. I have a 10TB external hard drive that works well. Will any of these higher TB externals work with Windows 7?

Don't see any reason why not, as long as you initialize it as GPT and format as NTFS.
