Setting the HDD property
You can change the behavior of your HDD by changing its property. It can be set to
redundancy, read-only or read/write (R/W).
An HDD can be set to read-only to avoid important recorded files from being
overwritten when the HDD becomes full.
Note: Ensure that the HDD storage mode is "Group" before setting the HDD to read-
only.
To change an HDD status property:
1. From the menu toolbar, click System Settings > HDD > HDD Information.
2. Select the HDD whose property you want to change.
3. Click the Edit icon . The Local HDD Settings window appears.
4. Click the desired HDD property for the selected HDD.
5. Click the group number for this HDD.
6. Click Apply to save and exit the window.
Note: Once set to read-only, the HDD cannot be used to save recorded files until it
is set back to read/write (R/W). If the HDD that is currently being written to is set to
read-only, the data is then recorded to the next HDD. If there is only one HDD
present, setting it to read-only means the NVR cannot record.
7. Click Back to return to live view, or continue configuring the NVR settings.
