Observe Disk Status
It may happen that one of your disks goes into failed status after NVR system started
recording for a long period. Mostly, a disk does not fail all of a sudden but because the number
of bad sectors on it has exceeded the minimum required level to maintain normal operation. On
NVR Live View interface, the recording status and system events can help you make an initial
assessment of the overall disk condition. For further inspection and disk management, please
make use of Window 7 built-in utility- Disk Management.
Live View Screen
On Device list, if the recording is proceeding normally, the red “recording” icon will
appear next to the device icon. If all the icons are missing when NVR is supposed to perform
schedule recording, your storage disk might have gone into abnormal status.
On the Event list will also display two kinds of abnormal disk status
– Disk Full: The storage drive is full, recording has stopped.
– Disk Not Found: The storage disk drive has failed or disconnected.
If you encounter any abnormal condition stared above, take the following steps to make a
simple diagnosis:
1. Confirm the schedule-recording setting
Go to Setup page  Schedule tab, and modify the recording schedule if it was not set
correctly.
2. Check Disk Drive List
Go to Setup page  Storage tab.
