11. APPENDIX
11.1 QSD371614 4CH DVR series - compatible USB Flash Drives.
In case noise occurs on USB line due to a variety of reasons such as power noise, it might
cause an error during the data transferring process. In this case, it requires re-transferring
the date to the flash drive. If the device can process things normally in these exceptional
cases, things are okay. However, in some cases, it doesn’t operate normally.
For example, in case of a PC, it might not cause any problem under this kind of situation
because it is immune to these types of problems. However, in case of our products, they
often work better with some drives compared to others. These are the flash drives we
recommend based on our testing.
