The Deepvision scans are first recorded to your computer hard drive. Then you can save the scan files onto a memory stick, CD, or DVD.

I checked some of my scan files and was recording somewhere around 25 Mb per hour of searching.

I am using a laptop computer and save the scans on the hard drive then save them on CD's.

To determine the distance of the bottom below the towfish you will see the water column which is the dark area between center of the screen and when the bottom is first detected. There is a scale that is displayed at the top of the screen and you can get a pretty good indication of the bottom below the towfish. For more precision there is a measuring tool that you can click on and get an even more precise measurement.
Hope this helps.
