To overcome this, ScanImage 3.5 adds the capability to 'stream' to disk continuously. This has been implemented for 'standard mode' operation only, and new controls can be seen on the Standard Mode Controls window:

New Controls - Save during acquisition?: When selected, data is streamed to disk continuously during GRAB/LOOP acquisitions. The number of frames that can be entered (# Frames)is unlimited.
- # Frames/File: Some users may prefer to separate ('chunk') data from very long acquisitions into several smaller files. This control specifies the number of frames to log to each file during the acquisition. As further data is collected, a new data file is automatically created. When this option is selected, a three-digit number (e.g. 001, 002, etc) is appended to the filename, following an underscore. The number is auto-incremented as each new file is added. Thus, if 3000 frames are collected with 500 frames/file, with Basename='BehaviorExpt' and Acquisition #=1, specified in the Main Controls window, there will be six files named BehaviorExpt1_001 through BehaviorExpt1_006. If this value is Inf, or the # Frames/File specified exceeds the # Frames, file 'chunking' is disabled, and all data is logged to a single file, named as usual (e.g. BehaviorExpt1).
