Pro 2 app

[Jintek]

I have the Costco Pro2, 5 cameras with VMB4000 base station. I want to expand my security system by adding additional Arlo cams like the 2k or 4K cameras. I know my current base station can support 8 cams total. The free package supports 5 cameras of free cloud storage. Meaning that three of the 8 cams allowed would store videos locally. I want to keep 1 base, 1 app, and 1 account for all 8 security cams. Will the app ever let me view my locally stored videos without having to disconnect the usb stick. I want the view my local vids through the app. No matter which cameras recorded it.

Hi @Jintek

"I want to keep 1 base, 1 app, and 1 account for all 8 security cams. Will the app ever let me view my locally stored videos without having to disconnect the usb stick."

The feature you are inquiring about is currently available for the VMB4540 & VMB5000. I have attached the link to the article here: What is Direct Storage Access and how do I use it?

So I would need to purchase a new base station? I’m confused if this Direct storage access works with my Pro 2 cameras, why wouldn’t it work with the base station that came with my cameras. I have a VMB4000r Base station is this similar to the VMB4040 ? How much does the additional station cost?
