Bit Stream Size | The Recording File Size in One Hour | The Recording File Size in One Day |
256K | 112M | 2.6G |

The following table shows the recording file size of the common bit rate under constant bit rate within one hour and one day for one channel.
The second step: after confirming the time requirement of
recording, calculate the storage capacity i m one channel requires according to formula(2), unit: MByte.

Ј number of days of recording storage
For example: the HDD capacity for recording one month for 1 channel 1.50M bit stream. Unit GB.
= 659ЎБ24ЎБ31=490296MB= 478GB
The third step: the total capacity (accumulating) qT for 16 channels timing recording for a whole day. Unit: GB
= = ЎБ16 =7648GB
If select 500G HDD, 16 pieces of HDD will be required to full record. User selects appropriate HDD according to the capacity.
The fourth step: calculate the total capacity(accumulating) needed for allchannels alarm recording(including motion detection). Unit: GB
