Here you’ll find a comprehensive list of hard drives connected to the NVR.
External drives connected via eSATA will be listed here, and will behave
like a standard hard drive. They will be labeled as eSATA.
External drives connected via USB
will not appear on this list, and can’t
be used to record footage - USB lacks the bandwidth to write multiple
streams simultaneously. External USB drives can only be used for
backing up footage.
S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology - gotta love a good acronym) is your hard drive’s way of telling the
NVR how it’s going.
Status: The current condition of the hard drive. It should say “Good”. If it says anything else, this indicates there’s a problem with
your hard drive.
If there’s no problem, there’s little else to do here, unless reading the output of the dozens of self-tests the hard drive performs
on itself is of interest to you.
If you have been confronted with a HDD Error, or the Status entry doesn’t read “Good” then you can use the S.M.A.R.T. information
to attempt to diagnose the problem. The information presented in the S.M.A.R.T. report is practically identical to what you’d see on
a desktop PC while using Administrator Tools , or a similar service.
Device: HDD
Device: S.M.A.R.T
Init.: Initializes the hard drive. You’ll only need to do
this for drives once, assuming that it’s not already
initialized. If the Mount column reads “No” then
choose Init. to initialize the drive.
Label: A quick way of differentiating between hard
drives. For the first setup, there will usually only be
one hard drive - you can always add and initialize
another hard drive later (connected via the eSATA
port).
Capacity: The total amount of space on the hard
drive. This will typically be slightly less than the
rated capacity of the hard drive as a fraction of the
space is required by the file allocation table (FAT).
Format: Whether the hard drive has been formatted
to operate with the NVR. When the hard drive is
formatted appropriately, this will simply read “yes”.
If it says anything else, such as an ominous “no”,
then select the disk and choose Format .
Mount: Whether the drive has been initialized and is
detected by the NVR. If the drive isn’t mounted then
it needs to be initialized (see above).
Free Space: The amount of available space on the
hard drive.
Warning!
Don’t initialize a drive that already has data on it, as theinitialization process will erase any information on the drive.
