4.1 USB Storage

Please use a mobile hard disk or USB flash drive with the storage capacity of 2TB or less in NTFS or FAT32 format. Please make sure the disk boot format is MBR.

4.2 Tips on selecting a proper USB flash drive

1. Recommended brands: Toshiba, SanDisk, Kingston

2. Interface specifications: USB 2.0, USB 3.0

3. Connector type: Type A

4. Make sure the actual reading speed is not less than 30Mbps, and the writing speed is not less than 10Mbps.

5. It is recommended that you format the USB flash drive or erase data before connecting it to our product.

6. It is recommended that you use a USB flash drive with the LED indicator, so that you can easily understand the working status of the USB flash drive. Don’t unplug the USB flash drive in the process of reading and writing, otherwise your

4. Tips

data will be damaged.

7. FAT32 format is recommended. Due to the special properties of FAT32, the single video file will be 2GB at most, and the recorded video will be split into multiple files but more stable (You can use our bonus software MP4-Cloner from

https://www.cloner-alliance.com/download.html to combine them into one file easily).

8. For NTFS, the recorded video will be stored as a single large file, but will be more prone to error than FAT32, resulting in unsuccessful storage or file corruption. Please contact our customer service for help when you encounter such problems. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you format the USB flash drive to FAT32 in order to get a better experience.

9. After formatting the USB flash drive using PC, please make sure to safely remove the USB device instead of unplugging it directly, otherwise the USB flash drive will be damaged and not work properly.

10. If the recorded video is 0KB or cannot play back normally, please reformat your USB flash drive.
