HARD DISK STORAGE ALLOCATION SETUP

The unit allows you to configure how internal hard disk storage is allocated for storing recorded video. The DVR combines the storage space of multiple HDDs into one logical disk and creates two partitions: TEMP and DATA. The system allocates 6 GB of disk space to the TEMP partition; the remaining space is allocated to the DATA partition. When the HDDs are formatted, the system creates two folders (Normal and Event) based on the Event Partition settings. A percentage of space is allocated to the Event Partition (event folder); the default setting is 50 percent. The remaining storage capacity is allocated to the Normal Partition (Normal folder).

NOTE: Before you use the DX4104 to record video, read the HDD Partition Notification (refer to Figure 35). If the Event Partition setting is changed, the system reformats all drives and re-allocates space to the Normal and Event folders based on the new event partition percentage.
