Will this work with D800?

Will this recorder dock work with the D800? After shelling out $3k for the camera, and quite a bit more for a slider and fluid head, I don't have the dough to shell out for a $1k ninja, or $2k Samurai monitoring + recording system. So, will this with the proper disk record from the D800? It says the HDMI out from a 5D and 7D aren't intended for the device, but the D800 is the first camera with this functionality, so I doubt this applies to the D800.

So you're gonna take it to the video side eh? Cool! I plan on playing with it but I'm not investing too much until I've got the still side nailed down

The link you posted doesn't work for me?

I've gotten my feet wet with video in the past My Youtube Channel (you can probably tell which are more serious. ;P), but I've got quite a bit of work planned out with video specifically for this camera. I can't wait to get deeper into it. I can say I'm nowhere near perfect with stills either, but I feel like if I don't get into this soon, I'm going to fall too far behind. I'm already getting into the game late. Plus, no one can deny the D800 has been built 50% for video.

So, I'd like to get more into personable narrative-type films, and Nikon has finally given me something I can buy that is a relevant upgrade from my D300s, and offers this as well.

EDIT: And as for the link, it works for me? Just search BHPVs website for "Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Shuttle SSD Field Recorder" ($180 version)
