Est. alarm video
Improves the estimated days of storage. Alarm-related video is retained longer than other
types of recording. Space is allowed for this extra retention time when you include an
estimated percentage of recordings that are expected to be triggered by alarms. This
results in more realistic estimates. By default, the percentage is set to 0 (zero). Increasing
this estimate reduces the estimated days of storage.

Estimated alarm video
Improves the accuracy of your storage estimate. Video triggered through an alarm or
motion recording schedule is retained at the full frame rate for a longer period of time than
your continuous video recordings. Increase the percentage setting if you anticipate that you
will incur many alarms during a given period; the estimated number of days decreases
slightly to reflect this setting. Leave this value set to 0 percent if you have not configured
the input alarm or motion recording.
