Wyze recommends using a 32 GB card with the Wyze Cam v2 that translates to 48 hours of 1080p video or 168 hours of 720p video. For example, the Eufy Solo IndoorCam C24 can support a microSD card up to 128 GB, which provides enough space to hold about 30 hours of 2K-resolution video or 36 hours’ worth at 1080p resolution. If you use local storage, you’re limited by the amount of space on the memory card or NAS device. Good video requires a lot of storage spaceĮvery type of storage option has limits. However, cloud storage at least ensures that you have a video clip-right up until your camera shuts down-that you can view in an app or a web browser. Of course, if the power goes out, if a child yanks the power cord, or someone simply steals your camera, you’re out of luck no matter what type of storage you use. However, if someone breaks into your home and steals the camera card-or the whole camera-you won’t have a record of the incident.Ĭloud storage keeps all your footage safely away from prying eyes (or hands). If you merely want to spot mice running across the kitchen counter or view what your dog is doing during the day, local storage should be just fine. It’s the absolute best option for security Although local storage is usually cheap (just the cost of the memory card), and in going local you don’t have to worry about who might potentially view your footage, there are a few specific reasons we recommend only those cameras that offer some type of cloud service.
We suggest that most people use cloud storage for their security cameras, or that they select cameras offering both local and cloud options (such as our current top-two indoor camera picks).
