capacity by being connected with the iSCSI storage device (hereafter referred to as
iSCSI Disk). This manual describes how to install/uninstall the iSCSI Disk and
precautions on handling.

Otherwise, all recording data including iSCSI Disk cannot be retrieved even though the iSCSI
Disk works normally, if the NSR-500 cannot be started in the event of its built-in HDD failure.
