  • Performance figures are obtained from testing conducted with the device fully populated with drives, with their default memory configuration, and under a continuous recording setup. Actual system capabilities may vary based on configuration, drive performance, enabled features, and the presence of additional workloads.
  • Use NVR Selector to quickly find a suitable model based on your requirements.
  • The number of streams that can be viewed simultaneously is twice the suggested maximum number of cameras. For example, if the suggested maximum number of cameras for a model is 10 under H.264, 1080p, the model can support up to 20 streams of the same specification at the same time.

  • Volumes over 108 TB require 32 GB of memory or more.
  • Actual maximum storage pool and volume sizes vary depending on drives used, the number of drive bays available, and the RAID configuration.
  • Usable capacity for each volume will be lower than the maximum volume size and is dependent on the filesystem and the amount of system metadata stored.
  • When Peta Volume is enabled, validated services and packages are required. Please refer to this article for more information on limitations.

  • Performance figures are obtained from testing conducted with the device fully populated with drives, with their default memory configuration, and under a continuous recording setup. Actual system capabilities may vary based on configuration, drive performance, enabled features, and the presence of additional workloads.
  • Use NVR Selector to quickly find a suitable model based on your requirements.
  • The number of streams that can be viewed simultaneously is twice the suggested maximum number of cameras. For example, if the suggested maximum number of cameras for a model is 10 under H.264, 1080p, the model can support up to 20 streams of the same specification at the same time.
