Not with the older systems such as the one you have. The newly announced Arlo Pro has that capability but isn't available yet. You can always download your videos to save them locally. I also recommend never deleting videos from the library since, once deleted, they're gone.

The base station that comes with the new Arlo Pro cameras has this capability. It has 2 USB port on the back where you can plug in an external hard drive or even a flash drive where it will store your videos. The files are pretty small too. So my old 8 GB flash drive That I found sitting around the house for example should hold a ton of footage! This new base station is not available to purchase by itself yet however. Just get the single camera kit so you can have one of the new pro models to play with too! They are nice!

Absolutely nothing. It's a shame since so many folks would have utilized them. It's probable that they were intended for use but maybe the implementation was faulty? Who knows?
