james.wilson Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Depends on bitrate ie constant or variable or image size. Its not as simple as 3 cams and days.

breff Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I usually allow 4gb per day per camera @cif The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct!

miaren Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I agree with Brefff... Just worked out ours to the same figure. H264 is a different beast though. Far more efficient. What are you using?
