Backing up original recordings

Create one folder per date and location. Copy the original files from each recorder card, keep the file names intact, and compare file counts and sizes. Open a sample recording from the drive before clearing any card.

What to check before buying

The selected model is WDBUZG0010BBK-WESN. Check the computer port and file-system compatibility, particularly when moving between Windows and macOS. Reformatting erases data. Retain another copy at a separate location.

For field technique, read the HauntGears guide to white noise and audio review. See the manufacturer’s specifications and instructions.
