Chapter 5 - Flash Memory Cards
The DVR is compatible with most fast PCMCIA or Compact Flash
(CF) cards up to 8 GB. Stack recommends Pretec and Sandisk
Extreme or Ultra cards as they have been shown to give excellent
results in harsh conditions.
Important:
For the highest quality recording it is essential that
Flash Cards have a sustained write speed of ×16 or faster. If the
card is too slow, video will play back with missing frames. This
problem can be alleviated by recording at a lower video quality,
see page 22.
Compact Flash Cards can be used with an adapter.

Important:

Check any new disk before using with the DVR. If supplied as
FAT16, reformat to FAT32.
