Hi @Mehtap_Abul

Air quality data isn’t very large in size, and so a 32GB card is actually capable of holding quite a bit. We have seen up to [a couple of years of data](https://community.purpleair.com/t/sd-card-logging-and-troubleshooting/543#sd-card-frequently-asked-questions-3) stored successfully. However, we always recommend that you set up some sort of regular interval at which to check on the SD card to ensure that data is being logged correctly.
