Hard Disk Drive
The distance between the head and disk that read and write data on the hard disk drive (hereinafter known as the HDD) is a miniscule 0.02µm. Vibrations and physical shocks to the HDD may therefore result in the head coming into contact with the disk, producing dents and scratches to its surface. This will consequently prevent data from being read, and will result in disk crashes if use is continued. It is therefore necessary to handle the recorder with great care.
■The HDD is a consumable item. Replacement is recommended after 10000 hours of use (if use in a 25°C environment). For information on maintenance planning and costs, consult your nearest JVC dealer.
■It is recommended that an UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is used when installing additional external hard disk drives to make sure the system remains stable.
■If a power failure occurs during formatting of HDD, disconnection, or when configuring or disabling mirroring, operation of the equipment may be disabled even if it is connected to the UPS.
■Please note that we will not provide compensation for any failure during recording or playback due to defects in this equipment or the HDD.
■Please note that recorded images will be erased when replacing hard disks. Note that there are cases where recorded images may be erased when software is upgraded.
■This equipment will automatically reset when minor data writing errors occur with the HDD or other device in this equipment’s system.
