Use an external drive
Connect the drive, then accept the SSD recording choice if offered, or open Save Destination to change it.
Use Pro Video Storage for ProRes
In Settings › Storage › Save Destination, turn on Use Pro Video Storage (iOS 27, supported devices). It reserves storage for ProRes, ProRes RAW and RAW HQ with a single recording writer; it is one of the two places ProRes RAW can record, with an external SSD. HEVC, H.264 and Dual Capture separate files cannot use it, and it is inactive while Files or a connected SSD is selected. Check Reserved and Remaining, use Configure Pro Video Storage to set the reservation in iOS, and Replenish Storage between takes.
Check remaining storage#
The storage indicator estimates the recording time left for the current format and destination, rounded down: 22H, 4:12H or 45M. It turns red below 10 minutes. Check it again after changing codec or frame rate.
