any visible damage to the DVR appearance. The protective materials used for the
package of the DVR can protect most accidental clashes during transportation. Then
you can open the box to check the accessories.
Please check the items in accordance with the list on the warranty card. Finally you
can remove the protective film of the DVR.

HDD Installation
3.2.1 Choose
HDDs
We recommend Seagate HDD of 7200rpm or higher.
3.2.2 Calculate
HDD
Size
This series have no limit to HDD capacity. You can use 120G-750G HDD to
guarantee higher stability.
The formula of total HDD size is:
Total Capacity (MB) = Camera Amount * Recording Hours * HDD Usage Per Hour
(M/h)
H.264 compression is ideal for standalone DVRs. It can save more than 30% HDD
capacity than MPEG4. When you calculate the total HD capacity, you should
estimate the average HDD capacity per hour for each channel.
For example, for a 4-ch DVR, the average capacity of HDD usage per hour per
channel is 200M/h. Now if you hope the DVR can record the video 12 hours each
day for 30 days, the total capacity of HDDs needed is: 4 channels * 30 days * 12
hours * 200 M/h = 288G. So you need to install one 300G HDD or 2 160G HDDs.
3.2.3 HDD Installation
Data ribbons, fastening screws and smart HDD shelf design are already provided in
the accessories.
Notes:
Please pay attention to HDD jumper:
z
If you just need to install one HDD, you can set the HDD to MASTER.
z
If you install two HDDs to one IDE port, you need to set the farther one as
MASTER and the other as SLAVE. Please don’t set HDD as CS Enable or Cap
Limit.
