How can I setup local storage?

Hi,

I have two Arlo pro2 base stations (VMB3500r4) and was wondering how can I setup local storage for those?

The article bellow says it applies to VMB3500r4 and I can view videos saved on local storage but can you guide me how to set it up?

Thanks in advance!

You need the VMB4000 and up to use local storage. Yours wont work.

What is the difference between each Arlo SmartHub and base station?

What is Direct Storage Access and how do I use it? (arlo.com)

In addition, I would suggest the VMB4540 if you're looking at updating the base since this not only uses a USB drive but also allows you to use the app to see the local recordings without the need to unmount the drive for viewing on a computer.
