The Seagate Dashboard for GoFlex Home will not run on Windows 8.  Any idea on when a patch will be available?

You can't be serious, can you? M$ hasn't even announced a delivery date for Win 8. Why should Seagate, or any other hardware manufacturer, release patches to software for an OS that is still in development?

I was hoping that you had beta driver in the works. I have a work around so it's all good.

I reinstalled Windows 7 (Using recovery CD and Win7 CD and set up a second partition for Windows 8.  Plan is to dual boot.  This way I can still play with windows 8 and use Windows 7 for what 8 won't work with yet.
