5. USB Device Storage All recordings are stored in the cloud, but you can connect a USB storage device to the base station and use the USB storage device as a backup location to store recordings. Simply connect a USB storage device and the base station automatically enables all the settings for you. The USB storage device can't be used on its own as a substitute for cloud recording. If you connect a USB storage device, the camera records to both the cloud and the USB storage device for motion-triggered and audio-triggered recordings (not CVR). If the camera and base station are powered on, but the Internet connection is lost, the camera continues to record to the USB storage device. The Arlo app notifies you if the USB storage device is full. The camera can reformat the USB storage device for you. See Format a USB storage device on page 43. Connect a USB storage device Plug a USB storage device into a USB port on the base station. Note: Before disconnecting the USB storage device, you must safely eject it. See Safely eject and remove a USB storage device on page 41.

You can also use the Arlo app to view the USB storage device status. 1. Open the Arlo app. 2. Tap Settings > My Devices. 3. Tap the base station. 40
