Why Solid State Drives?

The solid state drives (SSDs) we use are perfect for Dashcam systems. These drives are rugged, built to withstand extreme heat and cold, which is perfect for being left in a car year round, and have a read/write speed that far surpasses the minimum Tesla requirement (4 MB/sec).

SSDs are also capable of being partitioned, allowing you to use a segment of your storage for music or for Tesla's Boombox feature.

Regular USB flash drives cannot withstand the constant recording that takes place with Dashcam systems and will fail…probably when you need it the most. Our solid state drives are high capacity (500 GB) and highly reliable (3-5 year life expectancy).

Frequently Asked Questions

Tesla vehicles that have AP2.5 hardware or later are compatible with recording video to a USB drive. 

AP2.5 hardware started shipping on Tesla vehicles starting in August 2017, with a full conversion in October 2017. 

USB recording is NOT compatible with AP1.0 or AP2.0 hardware (vehicles manufactured before August 2017). Tesla does offer an upgrade to both the Autopilot system and the MCU, which would enable Dashcam recording. Contact Tesla Service for more information. 

No, your Pure Tesla USB drive comes entirely pre-formatted for TeslaCam.

Simply open the package and plug the USB drive into your Tesla. That's it!

One minute of footage has a typical size of 30 MB. Using that metric:

500 GB – Approximately 280 hours of footage.

International shipments going through customs are subject to inspection and, depending on your countries import policies, may be assessed import fees/VAT upon arrival and are the responsibility of the customer. This only applies to specific countries.

Items that are in stock will be processed and shipped within 1-2 business days.

Items shipped using the Priority Shipping option take 2-3 days for delivery (after shipment).

Items that are out of stock (backordered) will be noted on the product page and during checkout.

Dashcam is a system built into your Tesla. When a properly formatted USB drive (like the one we sell) is inserted into the USB port in your Tesla, the car will start recording from the front, left, right, and rear cameras. 

The system retains the most recent hour of footage before overwriting itself. 

To save footage, simply tap the Dashcam icon (small camera with red dot) and the last 10 minutes of footage will be saved permanently to the SavedClips folder on the drive. It will remain until you delete it.

Sentry Mode, when enabled, monitors your Tesla while it is parked and locked. When a potential threat is detected, the system enters Alert state, which starts the four cameras recording (front, left, right, rear) and also displays a message on the center screen.

If the threat becomes physical (entering vehicle, damage, etc) it will enter Alarm state and will activate the lights, horn, and music in the car.

Video clips from both Alert and Alarm states are saved to the SentryClips folder on your USB drive. The oldest clips overwrite when the drive fills up.

    Great product and packaging. It only takes a minute to open envelope and install into Tesla.

  18. Alen Kyson (verified owner)

    Glad I Bought The SSD. All I had to do was plug it in. The Dash Cam Light 💡 Comes On As Soon As I put The Vehicle in Gear. Honk the Horn and the camera Footage Saves !!! This didn’t Work with the Previous Jump Drive. I Wish My Tesla Had A USB in the Glove Box so I Could Lock the Glove Box with the SSD In it. But I would say if you have a Tesla this is the only jump drive to buy.

    Awesome product and easy purchase, installed perfectly in my brand new 2021 Model Y. Can’t wait to use it on our first road trip next week. And don’t forget that using the Sentry function on the Tesla will have more than enough room to record everything. Much better than just a smaller capacity USB stick.

    As advertised. Easy to install. Appreciate that it was pre formatted.
