The question is; after initial free (basic)cloud storage can I use only my own PC (1 TB) for storage and not to pay for cloud storage at all?

I would like to have some strait answer - can I use the Arlo Pro system with out connection to cloud but my PC only.If I have to pay for cloud on the top of over $400 for 2 cameras system I will return the system probably...and look for other options.Thanks for any help in this dilemma ...GenF

The BASIC level of service provides storage for your camera  ( the limit of 1 gb has not been enforce in over a year ) and does not end...only the tech support is for the first 3 months. Also the max cameras on Basic is 5 .

 

On the PRO you can have a usb drive to back up the video, but the answer is NO... the unit is really cloud storage and is needed to set up as such.
