Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

[deuskid]

Yeah and I've heard that the drive they give burns out very quick from the constant abuse it takes from the read- write process.

does it warn you once it is burnt out?

I wanted a ssd for two reasons. Better long term reliability, and I am going to partition it so I can have music on it as well.

This.
SSD is faster and suited for heavy read/write IO. More reliable, No moving parts

SD cards will fail over time and cause loss of sentry video logs. And also losing the entire contents.

You dont want to be faced with the prospect of not being able to play the video of a car accident to prove your case to the authorities

I bought the Sandisk 1TB ssd @ Costco. Now avail with $20 off.

Just got my vin. Just randomly checked and saw it in app.

I should be able to get that $750 CA credit right? Since my MVPA is before Sep? Or do I have to take delivery before?

Where is the VIN located on the app?

Where is the VIN located on the app?

I'm not seeing it in the app, only on my account on the web in the MVPA as well as source code.

Top left right under the reservation number.

Yes the original 510 area code number that said “welcome to the family”. It should get you to a SA. Or call your delivery tesla center and ask who you’re SA is.

I remember getting a text when I first ordered, but I deleted it right away

Thanks all for this idea. Just ordered a 1TB SSD from amazon. Got 350GB of mp3/flac to add to it in addition to the sentry footage.

does it warn you once it is burnt out?

Yeah I think you get an error message

does it warn you once it is burnt out?

There's no detection to warn you about anything in advance. If the drive starts to malfunction, then features that interact with the drive will either stop working or act weird. You might get data dropouts on video. You might not be able to play certain songs if you're using it for music. If the drive can't do what the dashcam software needs it to do, the dashcam icon will show a red X. Trying to use the dashcam software for anything will get you a message.

Ugh, why are they trying to force home delivery? I literally live in the worst location for that just let me pick it up.

Do I just call the SA number that I send messages to to switch to pick up?

 

[boxer74]

Just got a text from SA - car has left the factory.

Format the drive as ex-Fat

I’d definitely call SC and ask for pick up and state that home delivery is inconvenient for you

Just got a text from SA - car has left the factory.

Anybody have any anecdotal experience on typical time from shipment in Fremont to delivery in Ontario? My EDD window starts in 11 days.

Clarification: Ontario, CANADA not the copycat in California.
