Use this calculator to determine just how much storage
you will need based on how many days storage you want.
How many days of video do you want to store?
Number of cameras recording?
Number of frames per second you would like each camera to record?
How many hours per day does the facility operate?
How many days of the week does the facility operate?
You will need about
of hard drive space to meet your storage needs.
Tips:
1 frame per second is the lowest frame rate recordable and 30 frames per second
is the maximum which is real time
There is no real need to record in real time unless there are regulatory reasons
as in case of government facilities or casinos
Recording at 1 frame per second is what traditional analog systems record
You can always rewind in high speed so the lower the frame rate the faster
it is to playback an entire day
At 3 - 5 frames per second recording you will not miss any activity (remember
this is per second)
***these are just estimates as a variety of conditions
can substantially change the storage requirements. |
