Hi
I hope someone can advise on the following issue I’m having with the Hikvision cctv system at my daughters house as below which is less than two years old.
DS- 7608NI-M2/8P with 4 x Colorview DS-2CD3347G2-LSU 4MP IP which also records all different events such as person/vehicle etc 24/7
2TB Seagste Skyhawk hdd installed.
The disk status has been showing Exception but if you reboot the system the status goes back to normal and you can also see all the previous playback recordings for the last two weeks. Sometimes if you reboot the NVR then only some days are shown for playback.
I am wandering if this is a hdd failure issue and why it’s happened so soon. I’ve not been over yet to actually do a SMART or full format test before deciding to replace the hdd as not sure if it’s still under warranty.
At my own house I have a 3TB WD Purple installed in my DS-7608NI-I2 3 x Colorview DS-2CD2347G2-LU which I have had running for four years without any issues.
Therefore, can anyone
A) advise why I might be getting the intermittent Exception messages
B) If I do decide to replace the HDD, I will probably get a bigger one but which one would people get these days from their experience - I.e. WD Purple or Seagate SkyHawk for 24/7 usage as both have mixed reviews and the fact that I’ve not had any issues with the WD Purple in my system.
Any other advice/things to check most welcome.
Many thanks in advance.
