In this menu you can view and configure the internal HDD, that the DVR uses for saving the reocrdings. You will see the
state, free/total space and free recording time information concerning the HDD.
If you start up the DVR for the first time, you need to format the HDD.
NOTE : Make sure you are not formatting an HDD that has already data on it, unless you want to delete the previous
data.
• Format HDD/Format USB: First you need to select the HDD for formatting. Check the Select check-box. A warning
message appears on screen, asking your confirmation to delete all data on the disk after formatting. Click OK.
Wait until the HDD is formatted. For example, formatting a 500GB HDD will take about 1-2 minutes. When the
formatting is complete, a notification appears on the screen. Click OK.
• Overwrite: Use this option to overwrite the old recordings on the HDD when the HDD is full. For example, if you
choose the option 7 days then only the last 7 days recordings are kept on the HDD. To prevent overwriting any
old recordings, select Disable. If you have disabled this function, please check the HDD status regularily, to make
sure the HDD is not full.
