Note: RAID and on-NVR AI cannot run simultaneously — choose storage redundancy or on-NVR AI per installation. For mission-critical sites needing both, pair this NVR with a Hik-Central federation or run RAID on a separate DS-9xxx-NI storage NVR. For installations not needing on-NVR AI search, consider the iDS-* DeepinMind range (server-side perimeter / face recognition without AcuSeekHikvision K/VPro AcuSeek NVR Range: UK Installer Buyer's Guide) or the DS-9xxx-NI storage range (RAID + N+M hot spare without AI).
