Max storage size for USB Drive?

[hgpilot]

I've read about the min storage size of the USB stick in the glove box re: sentry and general recording (64GB), but is there a maximum size for an external drive? The CT comes with a 128GB stick - was thinking about using a 4TB portable SSD Drive. Any thoughts.

I have a 2TB SSD in my MS, no issues.

I'm not aware of a max size, but it does need full usb 3.1 or better transfer rates and can't consume more than 60W. As long as you have that you should be good!

I have been using a 256GB memory stick for a year but, when I pulled it today and looked for video off an incident I passed last week, I noticed it has only kept two days of videos,

I have had a 256GB memory stick in my Cybertruck for a year, no problems. But, FYI, when I pulled it today to look at what it recorded when I passed a wreck last week, it had only the last two days of video, less than 10GB, in the "Recents" folder.

Yeah, I wish it used a much larger ring buffer. It would be nice if one could specify how many hours or % disk usage to use.
