I got the v10 SW update on my LR3D on 10/2/19.
I've been plagued with USB for TeslaCam issues since about August. I bought the Samsung BAR 128GB in June and partitioned/formatted it to work with TeslaCam, but after 3 months it gave the Write Speed Too Slow warning and won't work now for more than 10 minutes (if that). I had another 64GB Kingston partitioned into 32GB parts and that is now a completely currupt drive and needs to go in the trash. The best solution for me has been an old 8GB Sandisk Cruzer (I think) that was already FAT32 and required no formatting or partitioning. But, it fills now within 3 days of being inserted.
I thought v10 provided for overwriting non Sentry-saved files.
Tesla site says: To help make USB storage for our Dashcam and Sentry Mode features easier to manage, video clips taken while your vehicle is being protected by Sentry Mode will now be stored to a separate folder on your USB drive. Older clips will also be automatically deleted if you’re low on storage.
Is this not happening on my 8GB drive because the Recent Clips directory isn't >5GB, which is because the Sentry Saved directory is about 4GB?
I'm want to get a larger USB (going cheap, after all this cost in USB devices) and want to know the consensus: if this SW is going to overwrite, what size is really needed? It would seem that all the owners using 256+GB USBs, SSDs, etc are overkill with the info in v10 SW release notes.
What do you think
