4.1.4. HDD
HDD Full
When an HDD is full, select whether to “Overwrite” or “Stop
recording”.
• Overwrite: DVR deletes the oldest data and record new
data.
• Stop recording: DVR stops recording when storage is
full.
HDD Check
Click CHECK next to each HDD to open the health check window. See full information for
each HDD such as model name, serial no, capacity, bad sector ratio, lifetime (used time) and
temperature.
HDD Format
When the new HDD is installed or there seems to be a problem with the HDD, formatting
the storage drive is recommended.
If system resources are occupied such as during a network connection while the HDD format
is in process, the formatting may fail. Reboot the system to release system resources and
then try to format again.
Select the HDD to format by checking the check box next to the HDD name and pressing
the format button. To format an HDD, enter the username and password.
1. It may take a few minutes to format an HDD.
2. When the format is done, all data in the HDD will be deleted.
3. The system always reserves some space in each built-in HDD to
effectively utilize archiving memory.
To achieve high-level system stability, a warning message of elevated
temperature will pop up when the temperature inside the system exceeds the
best range. This problem may be driven by the malfunction of ventilation fans. In
such an event, inspect if the DVR cooling fan is properly working or if the
environmental temperature around the DVR system is managed.
