However, the main disadvantage of this type of media is that the hard disk loses its working properties at a temperature below zero. In turn, flash drives do not have such drawbacks and have certain advantages due to the small size of the recorder, low level of power consumption, so that it can be safely left to work from the battery. Another great advantage is the ease and convenience of transferring data to a computer or PDA. The disadvantages of this type of media include a limited number of rewriting cycles.

Also important is the availability of video output, which allows you to connect an external display.
