A metal recovery-phrase plate is a backup medium question, not a device-function question. The review should focus on storage scene, writing clarity, later readability, and how the record fits the user’s backup routine.
Confirm the backup material task
Paper, metal, and other media all serve the same core purpose: preserving the recovery-phrase record. The comparison path is explained in How to Back Up the Recovery Phrase.
Review the storage scene
Think about where the record will be stored, how often it will be checked, and whether the characters can remain readable. Do not place private words in any digital note.
Keep the device workflow separate
The plate does not change how Ledger initializes or connects. If the device setup order is the question, return to What Is Ledger Initialization.
Record only non-private metadata
Write down the backup medium type, storage location category, and review date. Do not record the phrase itself in the article note or any support note.
