Why This Matters

Plan Your Surveillance Storage Right

Getting storage wrong means lost footage or wasted budget — neither is acceptable for security.

Right-Size Your Storage

Avoid running out of recording space or overspending on drives you don't need. Get precise TB estimates per camera group.

Codec-Aware Calculations

H.265 compression cuts storage requirements nearly in half versus H.264 — our calculator accounts for both.
