S.M.A.R.T
This function can be used to display technical information on the hard drive installed inside your
WIRELESS NVR. You can also perform a test (there are three types available) to evaluate and
detect potential drive errors.
Whole Evaluation not passed, continue to use the disk:
If for some reason the hard drive has
developed a fault (such as one or more bad sectors), you can instruct your WIRELESS NVR to
continue saving to the drive.
Self-check Type:
There are three types available:
Short:
This test verifies major components of the hard drive such as read/write heads, electronics
and internal memory.
Long:
This is a longer test that verifies the above as well as performing a surface scan to reveal
problematic areas (if any) and forces bad sector relocation
Conveyance:
This is a very quick test that verifies the mechanical parts of the hard drive are
working.
Note
: When performing a test, your WIRELESS NVR will continue to work as normal. If an HDD
S.M.A.R.T error found, the HDD can be continued to use, but there will be a risk to lose recording
data. It is recommended to replace a new HDD.
