How to calculate storage time and hard drive space requirements of a Hikvision install

In this video we show you step by step how to use Hikvision's storage and network calculator tool.

The integrated storage and network calculator helps surveillance system designers grasp an idea of the amount of bandwidth that will be generated by a number of cameras with the same or different configurations. In addition to bandwidth, the calculator allows designers to input hard drive space to calculate the recording time or input the recording time to determine the required space.

Nice Video .. I have a Hikvision NVR an older model that supports 8 HDDs upto 32 TB (8X4TB), but can I install HDDs with upto 8TB capacity (i.e 4 X 8TB), , will my NVR support it?
