Will this DVD player work with the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 (runs Windows 8.1 not RT)?

I'm not sure about the Surface Pro, but it runs on everything else, Mac, Windows 7 & 8, Linux. Put it like this, if it can read a optical drive, this thing should be good to go....I've thrown alot at it, and its still going strong.... even burns program ISO's perfectly....For the money, you can't go wrong! Next time I order, I'm gonna get several....

Can verify that it works on Windows 8.1 Pro. So it should work on 8.1, as the specs state no additional drivers are needed.

Hi Jo, I use this device with a Microsoft Surface Pro running WIN 8.1. It has a mini display port. So, my guess would be that this device will work with any Windows device with a mini display port. Jim

If it comes in a DVD form it will run on Windows 7. If it is the older version on 4 CD's it might not. It will not run on Windows 8

Yes and No. I'm using 8.1 and discovered that while it works fine as a CD device, Windows 8.1 won't play DVDs in it's Media Player. What you need to do is download the free VLC Media Player to play DVDs. Works fine, nice features.

Although I can't say for sure, given that I don't own a surface pro, I can't imagine that it wouldn't. This is a fairly generic player and samsung seems to have a driver for it in the "tablet PC" category (http://www.official-drivers.com/installer/?seed=samsung&act;=download&gclid;=CKPY2_f-x8ACFShp7AodhH4Aig). Nevertheless, safest bet is someone who's already paired it posting an answer. I hope you get lucky!

This item is compatible with windows 8.1. That's why I bought it for my surface pro. Hope this helps.

It works on my PC with Windows 7 in One Note, so I don't see why it wouldn't work on the Surface Pro 3's One Note.

I have a notebook that didn't come with a cd player and I have a external lightscribe. I can get it to work with Windows 8 cd's but I can't get it to do DVD's. I need to see if there is an update for it to windows 8.

For me it worked on Surface RT, the original surface. I don't see why it wouldn't work on the Pro 3 as well.

No, Microsoft changed the plug for the surface 3. It's only compatible with the surface 1 and 2.

Yes this works with Surface Pro three. Need another HDMI to HDMI as well need to have kick stand open tosupport the angle. Works great much less than Microsoft cable.

Yes, it will. I had no problems running it on Windows 8, or the 8.1 upgrade either.

I am using a Samsung (USB powered only) DVD player with the kdLinks USB plugged into my Surface Pro Tablet. I must have the kdLinks power cord plugged in to 120V outlet to make the DVD player function. Unplug it and the DVD stops working.

I want to play videos on my surface pro 4. Will this device work for that purpose?

I'm not sure about the Surface Pro 3, but it does not work for my Surface Pro 2.

Yes. I am using it with a Surface Pro 3 with a docking station running Windows 8.1. Works great. I haven't done any blueray burns with it yet, but have burned loads of CDs and DVDs and it works great. Wish the cable was a bit longer, but it works well.
