# Step by step: Surface Deployment Accelerator
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This article shows you how to install Microsoft Surface Deployment Accelerator (SDA), configure a deployment share for the deployment of Windows to Surface devices, and perform a deployment to Surface devices. This article also contains instructions on how to perform these tasks without an Internet connection or without support for Windows Deployment Services network boot (PXE).

## How to install Surface Deployment Accelerator
|
||||

For information about prerequisites and instructions for how to download and install SDA, see [Microsoft Surface Deployment Accelerator](microsoft-surface-deployment-accelerator.md).
|
||||
|

1. Download SDA, which is included in [Surface Tools for IT](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=46703) on the Microsoft Download Center.

## Create a deployment share
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The following steps show you how to create a deployment share for Windows 10 that supports Surface 3, Surface Pro 3, Surface Pro 4, Surface Book, the Surface Firmware Tool, the Surface Asset Tag Tool, and Office 365. As you follow the steps below, make the selections that are applicable for your organization. For example, you could choose to deploy Windows 10 to Surface Book only, without any of the Surface apps.
|
||||
|
||||
>[!NOTE]
|
||||
>SDA lets you create deployment shares for both Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 deployments, but you can only create a single deployment share at a time. Therefore, to create both Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 deployment shares, you will need to run the tool twice.

You can use USB media to perform an SDA deployment if your Surface device is unable to boot from the network. For example, if you do not have a Microsoft Surface Ethernet Adapter or Microsoft Surface dock to facilitate network boot (PXE boot). The USB drive produced by following these steps includes a complete copy of the SDA deployment share and can be run on a Surface device without a network connection.

Before you can create bootable media files within the MDT Deployment Workbench or copy those files to a USB drive, you must first configure that USB drive to be bootable. Using [DiskPart](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=761073), create a partition, format the partition as FAT32, and set the partition to be active. To run DiskPart, open an administrative PowerShell or Command Prompt window, and then run the following sequence of commands, as shown in Figure 7:

The SDA deployment share is configured with all of the resources required to perform a Windows deployment to a Surface device. These resources include Windows source files, image, Surface drivers, and Surface apps. The deployment share also contains two pre-configured task sequences, as shown in Figure 13. These task sequences contain the steps required to perform a deployment to a Surface device using the default Windows image from the installation media or to create a reference image complete with Windows updates and applications. To learn more about task sequences, see [MDT 2013 Update 2 Lite Touch components](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/deploy/mdt-2013-lite-touch-components).
