Not sure which docking station you got – I just put the Surface down, and push the left and right “arms” in –the groove at the bottom aligns the SP3.
I got the Philips – fully height adjustable (like the Asus), has the USB hub, does 60Hz, and has the screen control buttons on the front (Asus has them on the rear for some unknown reason). The Philips is also factory calibrated. However, the SP3 can only drive the monitor at 30Hz, even though the monitor’s capable of 60Hz Cheers Ken From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Stephen Price Sent: Thursday, 18 September 2014 10:04 AM To: ozDotNet Subject: Re: [OT] Surface Yep I got the docking station too. Docking it is a bit weird. Slide it to the side (left to right) then push the left corner in to hold it in place. Works ok but I feel like I'm going to break something if I miss? If you want an awesome 4K monitor have a look at a ASUS PB287Q 28-inch 4K UHD 3840 x 2160 Monitor. Its 1ms refresh and 60Hz. I wish it was out when I got my Samsung. The Samsung is ok but not the specs of the Asus. It's amazing. Well on paper it is, not tried one. Kind of have 4 screens atm but perhaps one day.

Get the docking station, and external monitor/keyboard, if you’re going to be doing a lot of work at a desk. As far as a device goes, it’s great if you need/want tablet functionality. If you just want a laptop, then there’s probably other options. I also got a 4K monitor, but the SP3 can only drive it at 30Hz, which is a negative that’s not for everyone. But does give you a huge amount of real estate. I also got a mSATA form factor SSD to replace my old 2.5” drive – you can get a 1TB Samsung EVO model for about $480. The size is amazingly small – probably about the size of two large USB keys.
