    Hi. Why 30 days ?

     

    22 days from 4 of 5mp cameras is good

     

    Hi Tom! Thanks for the reply!

     

    30 days is what we're aiming to achieve because thats what they're requested.

     

    Am I right in thinking dropping the FPS could improve the record length?

     

    Also checking / updating to the latest firmware and turning on H.265+ rather than dropping the bitrate as H.265+ is more efficient at compressing as opposed to having it off and fixing the bitrate so say 3k?

     

    Kind regards,

    SAS.

    Hi guys,

     

    I recently bought the following system:

     

    4 x DS-2CD2T55FW-I5 (Hikvision 5MP POE IP 50m EXIR Bullet)

    1 x 4TB Seagate SkyHawk HDD

    1 x DS-7604NI-K1/4P (Hikvision 4 Channel POE NVR)

     

    The issue I am having is that the cameras only record continuously for around 22/23 days, I need 30 days.

     

    I used the HikVision calculator and it says I only need 3TB to achieve this. However I have 4TB and can only manage 22/23 days.

    The cameras are H.265+ compatible, which I assumed was the best way to record on these 5MP cameras but am now considering playing withe the BitRate as I'm not sure what else I can do besides put more HDD space in?

     

    Any help would be much appreciated.

     

    Kind regards,

    SAS.
