SD card installation and file management
Pearl Mini comes with a standard SD card slot on the front panel. An SD card is needed when recording video.
If you're only switching video or live streaming, then you don't need to install an SD card.
We recommend using a minimum class 10 (C10) SD card that's at least 64 GB capacity but does not exceed
512 GB; however, most SD cards that are at minimum a C10, a UHS class 1 (U1), or a video speed class 10
(V10) should work. We've tested various SD cards with Pearl Mini, including:
l
Kingston 16 GB U1 / C10
l
Sony 32 GB U3 / C10
l
SanDisk 64 GB U1 / C10
l
PNY 256 GB U3 / C10
l
AData 128 GB U3 / V90
When the SD card is full, new recordings overwrite the oldest recordings. Do not eject the SD card while
recording is in progress as that may corrupt the SD card.
