Once you install a new hard disk to the recorder, it will be listed on this page and shown status
"offline”. You would need to initialize it so that it can be ready for recording. You can obtain
basic information about the disk you installed on this page.
To initialize it, simply click the “Format” button.
*This page will list the Internal disks only. The HDD will be formatted in EXT3 file system.
*The USB HDDs will only be listed on the "USB Backup" page. The USB HDDs have to be
formatted in advance in FAT16/FAT32 or EXT3 file system. (FAT32 is recommended)
* The internal disks that are formatted in EXT3 or FAT32 elsewhere will be listed on this page
and shown as "Online" after they are installed to the NVR. It's highly recommended that it's
formatted by the NVR, which will be formatted to EXT3 file system to ensure best performance.
FAT32 can be used but will result in a performance slowdown.
* HDDs formatted in file systems other than EXT2/3, or FAT32 will not be listed, and therefore
cannot be used.
