Using a memory card with Bitbrain EEG and biosignal devices

Sd Cards

Bitbrain devices support to back up the data to a SD card to prevent data loss due to the wireless connectivity. 

Bitbrain recommends using a Class 10 or higher microSD card, with a capacity of 8 GB.  The Kingston 8GB (UHS-I 1, Class 10) card has been extensively tested with Bitbrain products.

Using a non-compatible card may lead to data loss. 

SD card formatting: before the first usage of the SD cards, we recommend formatting the SD card using a 32KB allocation unit.
