Windows-based ExacqVision Systems Must Record Directly to Fixed Drives
The Windows version of ExacqVision Server must record directly to drives that Windows identifies as fixed drives, such as iSCSI drives. Network-attached storage (NAS), or mapped drives, cannot be used for direct recording because the ExacqVision system cannot detect whether the drives are being used for other purposes. Such conflicts can cause recording issues on… Continue reading Windows-based ExacqVision Systems Must Record Directly to Fixed Drives
