Data loss can be incredibly frustrating, which is why reliable preventative measures are essential. The SS-R250 addresses this with dual SD card slots, enabling real-time backups on the second memory card during recording. If the first card reaches capacity, the recorder seamlessly switches to the second, ensuring uninterrupted operation. To protect valuable recordings, the unit automatically saves and closes files every few seconds in case there is a sudden power outage to avoid loss of the entire recording session. The handy pre-recording function means there'll never be anything missing at the beginning of recordings. Additionally, the SS-R250 can function as a standalone backup system capable of running in parallel with computer recording for added security and reliability.
