CCTV Surveillance DVR Hard Drives

CCTV Camera Pros stand-alone DVRs and PC-based surveillance systems include either a 500GB or One Terabyte (1000GB) SATA hard drive and can be upgraded to as much as 24 Terabytes depending on the specific DVR model. To accommodate varying video surveillance needs, CCTV Camera Pros supplies additional and / or upgraded hard drives for our stand alone DVRs and PC-based surveillance systems. The HDD Compatibility Chart at the bottom of this page specifies the HDD capacity for each of the DVR models that we carry.

Why upgrade the Hard Drive in your DVR?

There are several variables which play into requiring larger storage capacity in one’s DVR:

1. The number of cameras you are using will affect the appropriate DVR or NVR hard drive size.

2. The resolution of these cameras (low, medium or megapixel), the higher the camera resolution, the better the video quality, and this will increase the storage requirements.

3. The Frames per Second rate you select for each camera (7.5, 15, 20 or 30 fps), for the higher the frame rate the more storage is needed.

4. The length of time you wish for the DVR to record (one, two, three weeks or more). Once you have assessed the number of cameras, the resolution and frame rate, determined how much time you can record before the oldest day is deleted, you will be able to decide which size hard drive is best for your video surveillance needs.

What can I do to improve storage capacity?

Customize each camera’s frame rate down to a rate the your are comfortable with. Reducing the FPS (Frames per Second) to 7.5 to 15 FPS from 30 FPS will substantially increase the recording time, without reducing your quality.

There are several exceptions to this, for example, if you are monitoring cashiers or capturing license plates on moving cars, we recommend that you record at the highest frame rate possible, which is 30 FPS for most DVRs.
