  • SD Card for a Dash Cam?
    So you bought a dash cam and are looking to upgrade your SD card. What is an SD card you may ask? SD stands for secure digital and is a digital storage card. The microSD card launched in 2005 and was designed for use in cellular phones. I remember using one of these in my Blackberry back in the day. Originally offered in 2GB storage. However, in 2019 they are now available in 1 TB capacity. Boy we have come a long way.
    Dash cameras use a microSD card. So make sure when shopping around you get the correct size. If you buy a regular SD card, I hope you have a digital camera to put it in.

    I most definitely learned a lot from this video. I am doing my research on dash cams, and this rabbit hole is quite deep, but also very interesting.

      @@SafeDriveSolutions That is what I have found from a few other reviewers. I am all about "Buy once, Cry once." I don't want to be in a situation where I buy a cheap card, can't see the video and am in a tight spot. Or over time, if I buy a few cheaper cards and they fail, I'd end up spending more money in the long run.

    I am curious to find out if you can use a micro-SD card that exceeds the storage capacity of the dashcam camera's software/hardware? For example, the dashcam's manual recommends 128MB storage card. Can a 256MB card be used? will the camera use 256MB before it overwrites new data onto the card?

    • @SafeDriveSolutions
      @SafeDriveSolutions  5 месяцев назад

      strongly recommend against this. We have heard of people completely missing sections of video because the dash camera will not support that amount of storage.

    Your sd reader is likely capped at 90MB/s. A few of those cards are over 90.

      I know most these cards were rated higher but they definitely did not score that way.

      @@SafeDriveSolutions -Despite the rating, other reviewers are getting much higher. They claim a faster reader is required for higher speeds. With all your cards not exceeding 90, it's likely the reader.

    What I want to know is. I have a nextbase 402G dash cam, and in the manual, it lists up to 32gb for an SD card. Am I able to use a bigger capacity card?

    I have a dash cam and sometimes when i put it in it pings out in the car and i have to find it . The cam is stuck on the window it hard to put the card in and i have no fingernails so i have to be very careful as it again pings out and i have to look for it in the car. is there a easy way to put it in the slot in the Dash cam. Thank you
