PLANET NVR-3280 - Manual (Page 50)

32-Channel Rack Mount Network Video Recorder with 8-bay Hard Disks
NVR-3280
6.1.6 Disk Setup
Once you install a hard disk to the recorder, you would need to initialize it so that it can be ready for
recording. You can obtain basic information about the disk you installed on this page.
To initialize it, simply click the “Format” button.
You can also connect external USB thumb drive to the recorder for firmware upgrade.
This page will list the Internal disks (or RAID volumes), and the E-SATA disk. The HDD will be
formatted in EXT4 file system.
Due to the chipset limitation, “Hotswap” is NOT supported for E-SATA HDD and internal HDD.
Please make sure to power on the E-SATA external HDD and plug it into the NVR before the NVR is
turned on.
The USB HDDs will only be listed in the "USB Backup" and "Hard Disk Status pages in "System
Options". The USB HDDs have to be formatted in advance in FAT32 file system.
Please plug in the USB HDD only after the NVR is fully started. The internal HDDs will NOT be
properly detected if the NVR is powered on with USB HDD plugged in.
