to save settings and exit the current menu.
Note:
Once set to read-only, the HDD cannot be written to until it is set back to read/write (R/W). If the HDD
that is currently being written to is set to read-only, the data will be recorded to the next HDD. If there is only one
HDD present, setting it to read-only will cause the DVR unable to record.
Setting HDD to Redundancy
In order to use HDD redundancy on your DVR, you will need to have at least two disk installed. Setting up HDD
redundancy will allow your DVR to redundantly record a copy of the videos onto multiple drives as a safeguard
against losing all your files in case of disk failures.
To set HDD redundancy:
1.
Click Menu > HDD to enter the HDD Management menu.
2.
Select HDD to set redundancy.
3.
Select the Set button to enter the HDD Settings menu, as shown in Figure 6.

Set
HDD Status
to
Redundancy
.
5.
Select
OK
to save settings and exit the current menu.
Note:
The HDD that is set to redundancy is used to store an extra copy of the recording. If a HDD is set to
redundancy, at least one HDD should be set to the R/W status.
Checking HDD Status
You may check the status of any of the installed HDDs on your DVR at anytime.
To check the status of a HDD:
1.
Click Menu > HDD to enter the HDD Management menu.
2.
The status of your HDD is listed under the
Status
column. If the status is listed as
Normal
or
Sleeping

the HDD needs to be replaced. If the HDD is
Uninitialized

can be use in your DVR. Please refer to
Initializing HDDs
for further instructions.
