camera714 0 Posted September 30, 2006 is it alright if i use a 300gb hdd for 4 channel clover recorder? even though the maximum for the recorder is 250gb. is this going to mess up the recorder? i notice i only get 2 days of recording, shouldnt it be longer? hmm maybe i should get a 250gb?

rory 0 Posted September 30, 2006 It may just not recognise it .. cant say as we dont work with those type of DVRs .. but with a High End DVR i can get a month easy with 4 cameras on motion detection in a business application with only a 40GB Stand Alone DVR. Either way even with maxed out recording you should easily get a week, heck im getting 2 days on my personal PC with just 2GB of available space using Mpeg4 and 720x480 Recording ... motion record but there's a ton of motion. Even if using Wavelet or JPeg (whichever the DIY DVRs use) should still get longer than that .. what size HDD is it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
