Now take the Main-stream table for example. DEFAULT IS 1080 LEVEL 5
It is an approximate data for one camera in one hour, eg. 1080P, if the Quality is 1 best), from the table, the camera uses 3600mb per hour per camera, 2TB is 2,000,000 MB
On the highest 1080P Image lever 1 quality at 3600MB per hour per cameraIf you use 1 Camera2TB HDD = 2,000,000MB / 3,600MB = 555 recording hoursIf you use 4 cameras(4 x 3,600) 14,400MB per hour = 139 hours Driving hours
If you change to 1080P image level 5 quality at 1800mb per hour per cameraIf you use 1 Camera2TB HDD = 2,000,000MB / 1,800MB = 1111 recording hoursIf you use 4 cameras(4 x 1,800) 7,200MB per hour = 278 hours Driving hours
If you change to D1 CAMERA and image level 4 quality at 450mb per hour per cameraIf you use 1 Camera2TB HDD = 2,000,000MB / 450MB = 4444 recording hoursIf you use 4 cameras(4 x 450) 1,800MB per hour = 1111 Driving hours
