View the USB Storage Device Status
The Arlo app notifies you if the USB storage device is getting full or if the USB

station:

If you are using a computer, enter arlo.netgear.com in the address bar of a 
browser.

The base station and a list of cameras display.
3.  Tap or click the base station.

The USB Device status shows whether the USB storage device is ready, must be

Safely Eject and Remove a USB Storage Device
Note:  USB storage devices must be safely ejected so that recordings do not occur as you 
are removing the USB storage device. Removing the USB storage device while it is in use 
can cause the USB storage device to become permanently unusable. The files on the USB 
storage device might be corrupted.
If you remove the only USB storage device that is connected to your base station, 
USB recording is disabled until you connect another USB storage device. If another 
USB storage device is already connected when you remove the enabled USB 
storage device, USB recording is automatically enabled on the other USB storage 
device instead.
