I just inserted a brand new USB flash drive (256GB) and let Arlo format the drive.

 

Arlo reports:

"Available Storage     232.85 GB used of 232.85 GB"

 

It's saying *all* of it is "used".  I guess this is just mistaken wording, but taken literally it's the complete opposite of correct.  There is 0 GB "used", and 232.85GB "available".

Yes, been like this for a very long time, my 16GB stick always says 13GB used while empty.
The other stick says 100MB used when full.

Just check capacity with a PC and make sure your getting recordings saved.
