If the mobile hard disk/USB flash drive is in the NTFS format, the recorded video will be stored as a single large file. For Box Pro/UHD Pro/ViewPro/ViewLite AV, please refer to user manual for more details.

[3]

If the mobile hard disk/USB flash drive is in the FAT32 format, due to the special properties of FAT32, the single video file will be 2GB/4GB, and the recorded video will be split into multiple files(You may use our bonus software MP4-Cloner to combine them into one file easily.).

[4]

For ClonerAlliance Box/Box Turbo, please make sure your mobile hard disk is in the MBR partition style. If it is in the GPT partition style, please convert it to MBR. It will work with our hardware. For ClonerAlliance UHD Pro/Box Pro/ViewPro/ViewLite AV, they work with all formats of USB sticks(NTFS, FAT32, exFat) and external hard drives(MBR and GPT).

[5] (1,2,3)

Special tips for ClonerAlliance Box Pro/UHD Pro/ViewPro/ViewLite AV: Using exFAT/NTFS USB storage devices, the single recorded file will be 16.7GB/16GB at most. Using FAT32 USB storage devices, the single recorded file will be 4GB at most due to the limitation of FAT32 format. Once the recorded file size exceeds these limitations accordingly, ClonerAlliance Box Pro/UHD Pro/ViewPro/ViewLite AV will generate a new video file automatically to continue the record.(If needed, you may use bundled Windows software MP4-Cloner to combine them into one file easily.) Note: The single file length is also limited to 3 hours(UHD Pro)/6 hours(Box Pro)/5 hours(ViewPro/ViewLite AV). If the size of the video file has not reached 16.7GB/16GB but the length exceeds 3 hours or 5 hours or 6 hours, it will also generate a new video file. For Box Pro/UHD Pro/ViewPro/ViewLite AV, please refer to user manual for more details.
