The figures above are for all 16 cameras running at 1 IPS (images per second) continuously for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Reducing the recording schedule times will reduce the GB/day and increase the number of days.
NOTE: Values indicating video storage capacity are estimates only. These estimates are to be used as guidelines in determining proper hard drive requirements. Many user selectable factors such as image quality, recording rate, image content/motion, and video noise will all affect the total amount of video that can be stored on a hard drive. These video storage duration estimates will vary based on actual use. These estimates are not an implied or expressed guarantee of actual perfor- mance.
