Data recorder

"When discovered, device self-destructed. This action destroyed several critical components, including data recorder, central processor, and transmitter."

―Capin Harinar writes of a self-destructing droid in a report^[1]

A data recorder was a device used to record data. The Imperial Viper probe droid XJ9-CS14 possessed a data recorder, but it was destroyed^[1] in 3 ABY^[2] on the planet Hoth when the droid self-destructed after an altercation with the rebel Captain Han Solo.^[3]
