Disabling Storage Media Folders

If you need to remove a media folder from storage, you must disable it. When a media folder is

removed from storage, the recorded media in the folder is not removed by default. You are given

the option to retain or remove the recorded media. Information in the media database is however

removed. When you remove a media folder, if the NVR is actively recording to that folder it will

automatically transition recording to another media folder in the same storage set. Once a media

folder is removed from storage the NVR will no longer record to that folder.
