Hi Pom, This unit has 256mb of storage allowing for up to 36 hours of recording capacity in LP mode. The memory format is MP3.

Unreal. Hours and hours. Have not reached capacity yet. Am using my Microsoft PC and MP3. Feel much safer at work!

Hi there, I used this device to record the full time training session 8-9 hours a day. I did not encounter any issue with battery life and storage capacity. Every night, I connected to the laptop to off load, review the information and verify the quality of recording. Then, used the iPhone USB wall charger to recharge to get ready for the next day. Hope this helps. How much storage capacity you asked? I think it's a few hundred mgb, maybe 200, but I can check it later. The important thing is the low storage of mp3 when it records makes a big different.

Sam 2 GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16 GB SD Card makes the recording time. With 2GB card & normal setting I got about 45 mins.

According to the Sony website: Recording and Playback Times (in Internal Media)(2ch) : HD PS: 35m; HD FX: 45m; HD FH: 1h00m; HD HQ: 1h45m; HD LP: 3h10m; STD HQ: 1h50m (Times are approximate; max time); MP4: 2hr40min === If internal memory is 8GB, then 32GB would last 4 times that amount. 35 minutes x 4 = 2 hours and 20 minutes (approximately).

Internal as far as I know. I have a little over 4 GB of audio on mine now and it is showing I have over 3 gb left.

It comes with a 2GB micro SD card which'll record 320kbps MP3's for just under 14 hours. If you just want to record lower quality sound it'll go for well over 34 hours; and as you can imagine if you buy a larger micro SD card you'll have much more space to play around with: e.g. with a 32GB card you could record a good 12 hours on the highest quality possible (which would be 24bit/96kHZ WAV). Trust this is helpful, I personally just record @ 320kbps, and it produces amazing sound.

Depends on how you go about capturing it, as in whether you are basing it on the battery and a single sitting or on the memory and how much it stores. On one battery charge I have recorded over two hours straight and still had enough battery life to keep going for what I estimated to be another six hours. As far as storage, it will hold as much audio as you put into it with storage. MP3 audio files are much smaller than video and store compactly on even relatively small 4GB SD cards.

Two Gigs built in, but will accept SD cards up to sixteen Gigs. I use a 2G card rather than the internal. You can select the recording quality, up to CD quality (which limits time). I use it only to record FM radio voice so can record hours. Great gadget!

Yea, 32 GB shouldn't be an issue, but make sure it's class 10 so it's fast enough to record. Your record time will depend on a lot of stuff... straight run, open and shut, on and off. Hard to calculate. It isn't "really" long though. Sorry, can't be precise.

Live & memorex... Sirens too... Recording is only about 10 secs worth.. In a pinch u can put d batteries in also

Hi ... I can't remember that right now. But I advice you to buy 256GB. I have a lot of musics and photos, and there's no memory anymore. I have to use an external HD... Go and buy 256GB. You'll be happier :)

OFF TOPIC, but I have really gotten unexpected value from the voice recorder - I'm something of a community activist, attend board meetings etc. and find the recorder to be more than adequate to 'tape" meetings - I load the .wav files in Audacity and export as .mp3's - lose a little volume but very compact and portable after that.

The size of the memory stick that comes with it is 3.68gb (formatted). The recordings are 600,160kb long (I guess so you can copy them to CDR's for storage purposes ... not a bad idea actually). The duration of a 600,160kb recording is 30 minutes and 5 sections - you can record for longer but it breaks up the files into that size. A 30 second clip takes up 9,376 kb space. SO ... 3.14 hours. The memory card could be replaced with another card if more time is needed. It doesn't compress based on how much actions is going on. So you will use as much memory recording a still image as a full motion image. Also doesn't do motion activated recording. My most recent usage of it I recorded about 50 minutes of video, I ended up with that 600,160kb file and another file around 500,000kb long.

Works just fine for storing mp3 or .wav files. It can be accessed for individual playback..beyond that, no idea.

The 32gb card will last about 5-6 hours before it gets overwritten. The loop setting of 1/3/5 mins decides the size of the recorded file. Thanks.

It records into a micro sd card (the same kind typically used in smartphones) If I remember correctly you can get up to a 64G micro sd card. To put it in perspective, it records about 11 hours on a 2G card with mp3's set at 320kbs (which is the highest quality mp3 level. WAV files are typically larger, but of higher quality).

All the documentation indicates 32 GB is the maximum card capacity. In most cases this should be sufficient if you set the options to loop over older recordings so that you will always have the last few hours saved. You always have the option of swapping out multiple cards if you need to archive more than 32 GBs.
