Adding Standalone Drive for NVR recordings - not wanting in existing array for media


Recommended Posts

I would like to add a drive (4 TB WD Purple) specifically for NVR into my Unraid server. I don't want to add it to my existing array of WD Red NAS drives. What should the process be that I follow? Should I leave as an unassigned drive, do I need to create a new array (don't anticipate expanding this), do I need another drive to act as parity (not concerned with keeping an extensive amount of recordings here, just wanting to keep a few day's worth of data if I need to look back. Will be filling data from 3-4 cameras. That's what I've got so far, let me know if you have any questions or wanna talk through anything! Thanks!
