    Is this a "hidden" USB drive in the center console?

    So, I had a loaner 2020 MX this week and it had this in the center arm rest storage space. It looks like a USB SSD. Does anyone have any information on how to install it? Is this common? I'm using a regular "super small" USB thumb drive but it might be good to move to something like this...

    Question for those regularly using USB drive for music playback:

    I have a 2022 MYLR modified with the T-Parts USB control module that enabled data on the front USB-C ports. I had read semi-recently, either by release notes or posts/comments that the handling of usb music was better after recent software updates (playback resume when entering car after...

    Tesla trashed my music partition

    I've owned a Model 3 since March of 2019, and have used a partitioned USB SSD as a dashcam and music storage device since then. I originally set it up as two FAT partitions, and this worked fine for years. Recently, I've noticed that the TeslaCam logo has been showing a red "X" from time to...

    USB Drive FAILURE

    Had issues (sentry mode screen black for an extended period of time) when trying to view sentry mode events for the last few months. Two weeks ago, the viewer was totally disabled. My only option was to format the USB drive. I did that and sentry mode was working again. Today I jumped in and...

    Sentry Cam Thoughts

    I had no idea how many people brush against, almost hit, or hit my car all the time. It's crazy-making to watch afterwards. Yelling "watch what you're doing!" at a recording. Even with ample space around the car, people manage to still brush against it or hit it with bags. It does use a fair bit...

    Model Y Dashcam USB formatting

    In order to get the Dashcam set up, can one format the drive in the car? I see a button for format drive, but it's disabled. I assume one has to actually format the drive on a computer in FAT32?

    MASTER THREAD: USB drives that work with Sentry and TeslaCam

    A few days ago this message showed up: “Dashcam: USB drive is too slow to save-please use a drive with higher write speed” Then I tried to format the usb stick but it still didn’t work. The worked flawlessly for months until now. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Dashcam Flash Drive - Volume Error on Plugging Drive Into Windows (10)

    I'm not sure if this has been covered by another post or not... After formatting my flash drive to FAT32 and plugging it into my M3SR+, the drive mounted and worked ok. However, after stopping the dashcam recordings (as prescribed by Tesla), removing the drive and then plugging it into my...

    Dashcam - need to delete files?

    Is it necessary to keep track of the files on the USB drive and delete them when the drive is full? Does the dashcam software not just overwrite the oldest when the drive becomes full? I realise this is just beta software, but I wish there were some instructions somewhere that specified things...

    DashCam / USB Drive Issue

    I formatted a 4 GB USB Drive, created TeslaCam Directory and inserted USB Drive into front USB port. Icon with Red Dot appears and seems to work fine; however, after about two hours Icon shows up with X. Car was in garage for these two hours. USB full. Not sure if the size of the USB Drive...
