Added a 2nd hard drive to NVR and been searching on setup options but haven't found much info. Purpose is to extend historical data so my thought is when HDD 1 is full, NVR will start writing to HDD 2? Not sure if this is by default or requires manual setup?

I did find one post that mentions assigning cams to different hard drives but not sure if that is the only option. Thanks for the support!
 
it does that by default, just format it and make sure its in same group as first disk
