It isn't just a question of fast enough. With some recorders the requirement
is that the combination of card, driver, os,etc has to be smooth
enough to deliver the data in a steady stream for half an hour without
any interruptions.... ie there's no flow control or pause button allowed.
Nicer recorders (more expensive) have an internal hard drive. You load
the data onto that, then it can record directly off its own stored image.
