Dashcam usb device?

Hello All,
I have just joined this site and found the discussions very helpful. So posting my first Q.
When I got the dashcam activated, I found that the USB device I was using was not recognized by the soiftware. It kept saying 'insert USB device'. My device has 2 slots - one for a regular SD card, another for microSD.
When I added both the cards, it recognized and started recording (I must say the quality of recording is awesome). However, it records on both the cards!!! I couldnt find a way to select which one to record on.
Is this your experience as well? Today's devices have multiple slots. Why does it expect to have cards in all the slots?

Regards,
Ram

usb-c card reader did not work for me as well (I only tried micro sd) and I switched to usb-c flash drive

Yeah, card readers don't work well. I have tried a few and always ran into all kinds of issues. I just went ahead and bought a SanDisk USB-C SSD and it has been working perfectly for the last 15 days.

Thank you everyone for sharing your experiences!
I finally bought a Sandisk USB with a simgle slot. Cant believe MB is so primitive in its software!!
