|---|---|---|---|---|

| Storage Capacity | 1,024 GB | Average | 13% worse | Residential storage baseline. 1TB-2TB is the standard "insurance" level for most homeowners, providing enough buffer to review recent incidents. |
| Number of Channels | 8 channels | Average | 6% worse | Standard residential headroom. 8-channel units are the industry favorite because they allow a homeowner to start with 4 cameras and grow over time. |
