Although CSx monitors can support large storage drives we recommend using a smaller drive and copying jobs off the drive and onto long-term storage at regular intervals – in other words don't keep all your eggs in one giant basket. Monitors with multiple USB ports like the CS65, CS65xr, and CS12x have a job copy feature that allows you to copy jobs from one drive to another without needing a computer.

Solid state drives, including thumb drives, deteriorate over time causing the drive to become unreliable. Portable SSDs for use with laptops and PC computers are rated for the number of read/write cycles they can handle. Most USB thumb drives don't have this type of rating but cheap drives tend to fail sooner so stick with a name brand and replace the drive as soon as it starts having issues. 

If a drive begins having issues you can use Windows to find and fix errors so that you can salvage inspection jobs before replacing the drive. This article and video shows you how:
