met_manlucu 0 Posted July 6, 2006 I would like to have more info about Video Over IP Recording. How do I compute the amount of storage a camera needs to record? For example, to record cameras 3Mbits, 4CIF for 30 days. There are some information in the CCTV Brochure how much storage the camera needs for a certain specification, but I need to know how they compute it. Another issue is that most of the time, it ends up needing a big storage especially when the customer requires 30 days recording. The bad thing is that recording sometimes become the same price as your CCTV equipments. What is better decentralised recording or centralised recording?

Thomas 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Generally IP camera set ups are going to be more expensive for the same quality. Generally I perfer central storage because you can take advantage of the redunancy of raid based systems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
