About CCTV Hard Drive Upgrade
A CCTV hard drive upgrade extends how many days of footage you retain and replaces noisy, failing or full disks before recording stops. iComply supply and fit surveillance-rated hard drives in DVRs and NVRs across Greater Manchester, with careful rebuild of recording settings and checks that cameras still write reliably after the swap.
Desktop PC drives are a poor fit for 24/7 CCTV workloads; we use surveillance-class disks sized to your camera count and retention target. Upgrades can expand from 1TB to multi-terabyte arrays where the recorder supports them. We back up essential settings where possible, install drives, reformat as required by the unit, confirm recording schedules and restore remote access. Ideal preventive maintenance for shops, landlords and warehouses served from Stockport.

CCTV Hard Drive Upgrade FAQ
Will upgrading the hard drive erase old footage?+
Usually yes — new or reformatted drives start fresh. If you need specific incidents saved, export them before the upgrade.
How do I know what size drive I need?+
Retention depends on cameras, resolution, fps and motion vs continuous recording. We estimate days of storage for your settings on quote.
My recorder beeps about HDD errors — can you help?+
Yes. Warning beeps often mean a failing disk. We diagnose, replace with a suitable drive and confirm stable recording.
