Adding the External Hard Drive to a Recording Path
Before you start recording to the external hard drive, you need to add the formatted
external hard drive to the recording path.
Note: The default recording path for external hard drives starts from E:\
1. On the GV-Desktop, click the Programs button, and select Hot Swap HDD
Tool.
2. Right-click the hard drive in the MediaMan Tools window, select Add for
recording, and then select the storage group from the drop-down list. The
Storage 1 is created by default.
3. Click OK to automatically configure the hard drive to the recording path.
Formatting the External Hard Drive
The GV-NVR System Lite records audio and video to the internal hard drive. You can
also use an external hard drive to expand recording space. You must format the hard
drive before you can use it.
To format an external hard drive, use Windows’s Disk Management. To start
initializing and formatting an external hard drive, click the Programs button on the
GV-Desktop, and select Disk Management. The feature is protected by an ID and a
password. The default ID and password are “0000”. For details to format an external
hard drive, see 3.5 Formatting the Hard Drive in GV-NVR System Lite User’s Manual
(GV-Desktop < Program button < Multicam Installation).
