This is a question for the tech or math experts.
I would like to know if anyone has an opinion on the best sized drive for the dash cam.
Looking at footage, the size varies. 1meg to 30meg maybe.
Considering the Fat32 format, from what I have found these are the recommended cluster sizes.
16Gig 4kb
64Gig 16kb
128Gig 32kb
256Gig 64kb
512Gig ??
1,024Gig ?? (Terabyte)
I am not convinced the numbers above are correct, as I found some conflicting information.
I also see I can get a 512Gig, or even a Terabyte Flash drive.
At some point the cluster size is too big, and space is wasted. So.. has anyone tried 256gig or bigger, or know what will work best as far as large size while not wasting space?
I am thinking of getting a couple 256Gig drives to swap out when they get full.
Amazon has 'Samsung MUF-256AB/AM FIT Plus 256GB - 300MB/s USB 3.1 Flash Drive' for just over $50.00.
Thanks.
