arlo pro 2 vs pro 3 storage

I am still looking into getting the Arlo pro 2, but wanting to do my due dilagence I thought it best to compare the Pro 2 to the 3. My specific question is the following after seeing a comparison online between the two different types.

Both have free cloud storage. The Pro 2 has 7 day cloud storage FOEREVER. The Pro 3 has 3 months free but then you need a subscription. So there is NO 7 day or some other option other than subscribing for storage ?

Also is there any storage options other than the Cloud ? Our current 8 camera system has a sd card in each camera that stores several days of info. If I were to get FREE 7 days storage with the pro2 and no other option but to subscribe for the pro 3, then I would go with the pro 2.

The Pro 3 is more expensive, but has better features.

But the subscription requirement is something pushing me back to the Pro 2.

Thanks

John

Pro 2 and Pro 3 can both store recordings on a USB drive.

What is Direct Storage Access and how do I use it?
