• HDD List
On top of the screen the types and statuses of internal HDDs, external HDDs, and/or NAS devices
currently connected to the system are listed.
Select a hard disk drive from the list and click the Format button in case of unformatted storage.
When you click the Format button, the NVR ask you to set the storage to record or archive device. If
the storage is formatted to archiving device, it can be used as a record storage.
Note: Archive records a video to the record storage and
copies it to the archive storage at the same time. The
external USB HDD can be set to backup device only.
Please refer to “5.2 Comprehension about Archive and
BACKUP function” for more information.
The current temperature of the hard disk will be displayed in the Temperature column. The
Temperature column displays Good if the temperature is below the limit and Bad if the temperature is
above the limit.
If the hard disk installed in the NVR supports S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting
Technology) monitoring program, the status of the installed IDE hard disk is displayed. The
current status of the Disk S.M.A.R.T. will be displayed in the S.M.A.R.T column. The S.M.A.R.T
field displays Good if the Disk S.M.A.R.T. is good and Bad if it is bad. The Disk Temperature and
S.M.A.R.T. status is monitored in real-time.

Note1: Common Internet File System (CIFS) is a remote file access protocol that forms the basis
for Windows file sharing, network printing, and various other network services. CIFS requires a
large number of request/response transactions and its performance degrades significantly over
high-latency WAN links such as the Internet.
Note2: Network File System (NFS) is a network file system protocol, allowing a user on a client
computer to access files over a network in a manner similar to how local storage is accessed. NFS,
like many other protocols, builds on the Open Network Computing Remote Procedure Call (ONC
RPC) system.
