Storage mode
To ensure an efficient use of the storage space available on HDDs, you can control an
individual camera’s storage capacity using HDD quota management. This function lets you
allocate different storage capacities for both recordings and snapshots to each camera.
Note
: If the overwrite function is enabled, the maximum capacity for both recordings and
snapshots is set to zero by default.
To set the HDD quota for a camera:
1. From the menu toolbar, click
Configuration
>
Remote Configuration
