14BChapter 15: Storage management
Initialize a HDD
The HDDs delivered with the unit do not need to be initialized before they can be used. When
reusing HDDs, you can also re-initialize the HDD. However, all data on the HDD will be erased.
To initialize a HDD:
1. From the menu toolbar, click
Management
>
HDD
2. Click
Select All
to select all the HDDs.
3. Click the
Init
button to begin initialization.
After the HDD has been initialized, the status of the HDDs changes from Abnormal to
Normal.
Overwrite a HDD
You can select how the recorder responds when the HDDs become full and there is no longer
sufficient space to save new data. The overwrite option is enabled by default.
To enable overwrite when the HDDs are full:
1. From the menu toolbar, click
Management
>
HDD
2. Enable Overwrite.
Caution: If the overwrite option is disabled and the quota management capacity for a channel
is set to zero, the recordings on that channel can still be overwritten. To avoid this happening,
set a quota level for the channel or use the group management mode.
3. Enter the recorded time to be overwritten in number of days. Default is 2 days.
4. Click
Apply
to save the settings.

button.
