anyone knows what is the maximum size (if there is any) for the USB/SD Card? I'm currently using Sandisk 64GB USB and would like to get into something like 128GB or even 256GB
Yes, a 3rd party formatter is required, but it's not that hard. Worked fine for me anyway.As far as SD card, from what I read you’re capped out at 32GB to keep it as a Tesla-friendly FAT32 drive. Otherwise, it won’t work - you’ll need third party software that formats bigger drives to FAT32. This seems to apply for PCs and possibly Macs (can someone confirm?)
The trade-off is SD cards are supposed to be more stable than USB in the long term, especially if you get one of the endurance SD cards.
Where do you insert a SD card?
You insert the SD card into a USB reader / adapter. I chose one with both normal type A and type C connectors so I can pull it out of the console and watch the videos on my phone - works fine.Where do you insert a SD card?

for the tl;dr folks- his reason to not use a USB key was concerns about wearing out the device.
This isn't really a serious concern though with a large drive and the small files Tesla records.
The math has been posted before, a 128GB regular, cheap, USB key is still gonna be good for 5-10 years before it goes through enough write cycles to hit the 1000 write cycles even cheap flash is rated for. A 256GB one will be good for a decade or two.
He's correct the type of flash on endurance cards is rated even higher (3-5k writes)... so I guess if you want a recording device that'll be good for your grand kids knock yourself out. Otherwise it's not gonna make a difference.
Where he's not correct is he points out the SDcard advertises being temperture proof, shockproof, etc... and then claims that makes it "more durable" than a key..but those are literally the same things the USB card he waved around earlier advertises as well. No difference at all.
It does if you have iOS 13 (older iOS versions can only read from the DCIM directory). Also, if you use a Micro SD card you'll need an adapter since the Apple reader only takes fullsize SD cards. There are clones available that can handle both SD and Micro SD (and are half the price).anyone know if this works for viewing our tesla videos ? Lightning to SD Card Camera Reader — Apple
cool thank you for the helpIt does if you have iOS 13 (older iOS versions can only read from the DCIM directory).
