Good morning everyone,
I have a question and hope you can help me.

I’m using 4 TP-Link Tapo C560WS cameras set to continuous 24/7 recording, connected to a Tapo H500 hub/NVR.

I’m planning to install a 2.5" HDD, but I’m not completely sure how much recording time I can expect.

From what I’ve understood:

  • with 1 TB I should get around 6–8 days of recording

  • with 2 TB around 12–15 days

Does anyone have real-world experience with a similar setup?

👉 In particular, I’d like to know:

  • how many days of recording you actually get

  • whether it’s worth going straight to 2 TB

  • any recommendations for reliable HDD models

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help 🙏
