sixwheeledbeast Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I don't know the i-on but I would imagine most devices like that will be FAT 1 Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/43732-i-on40h-sd-card/#findComment-499301 Share on other sites More sharing options...

datadiffusion Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Camera recordings and upgrades (SD upgrade path is useful if you come across a really early one and want to jump firmwares without going around the houses) FAT32 AFAIK Funny enough I am just about to set up a bench test of an Ion-30R with an Eaton IP camera. So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/43732-i-on40h-sd-card/#findComment-499323 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't there a limit on card size aswell ? Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/43732-i-on40h-sd-card/#findComment-499348 Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Yes, it might be quite small.

sixwheeledbeast Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I would expect a 32GB card to work no problems. That is conveniently the max size Windows formats to FAT32 and the cut off for SDHC and SDXC. Beyond that if larger SDXC cards work I'd expect it to be fine upto 2Tb unless they have designed some weird size/file restriction into it.

datadiffusion Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Yes that rings a bell. Pretty small by current standards I guess though so maybe OP has whacked something bigger in.
