The following factors affect Intellex record capacity:
INTELLEX RECORD
CAPACITY
Record Rate — At higher record rates, the unit records more
images and uses more storage space, but the video segments are
more complete. At lower record rates, the unit records fewer images
and uses less storage space, but the video segments are not as
complete.
Activity Type (minimal, casual, moderate, intense) — Images
from cameras with intense activity require more storage than
images with casual activity.
Number of Cameras (1–16) — As the number of cameras
increases, the storage space required also increases.
Number of Alarms — As the number of alarm events increases,
the storage space required also increases.
Internal Data Storage — Each Intellex unit ships with at least 56
GB of internal data storage. Options are available for additional
internal data storage. Internal hard disk storage capacity is
summarized on the System information display from the About
Intellex screen.
External Data Storage — Total recording capacity can be
increased by installing an external data storage unit.
Image Quality (Super, Normal, Extended Record) — Higher
quality images use more storage space and shorten record duration,
but they also retain more image data. Lower quality images use less
storage space and increase record duration, but they also retain less
image data.
Sensitivity Setting (High Sensitivity, Normal Sensitivity) —
Recording images at high sensitivity uses more storage space and
shortens record duration, but it also retains small, subtle changes
between images. Recording at normal sensitivity uses less storage
space and increases record duration, but it also ignores small, subtle
changes between images.

Activity Levels

Minimal — A quiet room or hallway with an occasional occupant
or traffic. No motion due to wind, camera motion, or camera noise.
Casual — A room or hallway with a couple of occupants or
frequent traffic. A sidewalk or street with some traffic and little
motion due to wind or light changes.
