When I found myself with a floppy I needed to transfer, I did a search on "transfer files from 3.5" floppy to windows 7". Try that with Windows 8. If something on Amazon doesn't come up automatically, once you have a product name, search for it on Amazon. They've never failed me yet. Good luck!

YES, it works with Windows 8. If you connect the device and "Floppy Disk (A:)" fails to show in the File Explorer, type in A: on the address bar. If the files cannot be directly opened from the floppy by your software, copy the files to another folder on you hard drive, then open them. (Why? - Modern software is not designed to use slow floppy disks directly)

I bought Sabrent SBT-UFD8 (USB Floppy Disk Drive). It works well with Windows 8 and 8.1

I have an HP laptop running Windows 8.1. I plugged the drive in and it immediately started working. I would say yes, it will work with Win 8.

I have resisted windows 8. I have windows 7. call the company and ask or call best buy geek squad and tell them you are buying a windows 8 pc and ask them if it will work. Also, there are places that will transfer from floppy to new pc for a small charge.

I used it with Windows 7, so I really don't know. My educated guess would be yes, since it's only transferring files, but I can't be positive.

I'm afraid I can't answer that question. I use it with Windows 7.But I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work with Windows 8. I also use it with Linux, and it works fine there.

Honestly, I am not sure! I don't use windows 8 I have a Mac. You could look under specifications if it is available and check.

it should be. I run windows 7 and it had to search for a driver to get it to function. My mouse was DOA (dead on arrival), but I did get it to function a bit after windows 7 found a compatible driver, and windows 8 should be able to do the same thing.

Windows 8 I do not know, but I would assume it would not be compatible. Reviews are a funny thing, many people just want something to work right out of the box. Maybe they are just using the product wrong. product quality control is lacking, some work some do not. This is definitely not a product to take a chance on.

Sorry... I'm using it on a older computer and it's working right... It shows no reason why it would not work on Windows 8. But I have not witnessed the facts of that so I am not eligible to say yes.

I'm using it with Windows 7 so I'm sure it will work with Windows 8 - - - Have fun!

I use Windows 7 so I can't really say from experience. I assume it would be compatible with Win 8 since it says so on the official page - just have to install the drivers that it comes with.

It works with Windows 8 flawlessly. There is custom software/drivers that provide firmware updates that may not be compatible with windows 8 however.

I am tempted to say that NOTHING works with Windows 8 ;) I have not tried it.

I don't have windows 8 so I can't answer that. Hopefully if you contact the seller or the developer they should [hopefully] be able to answer your question.

Yes it is compatible with windows 8. It has a sloping palm rest leading up to the keys.

I am not sure, I am using it with Windows 8 & it works just fine. I believe that it should be.

I haven't tried it myself but I don't see why not. (The box does say it is compatible with Windows 8)

Yup! Check out one of the images for the box and you'll see the win 8 compatibility sticker
