When using a 512GB SSD for "Storage Management", up to 439.1GB can be used, but the video recorded by the camera can only be used up to 332.21GB.
1. Why is this difference?
2. Could you tell me how to set up to use up to 439.1GB?

  Hello @...,

  The further explanations consider you're hitting the limit right now when the Server starts to recycle the oldest data. I.e. the data consumed for recordings does not grow over time.
  The difference is that 439.1GB is your total disk space, while 332.21GB is how much of the total disk space your recordings are currently using.
  By default, Nx Witness reserves free space for every single local disks and network shared drives.
  Nx Server will start recycling the oldest footage as soon as free space of the disk is less than assigned reserved space.
  In your case, 30 GB is reserved and 70 GB is used by the system and other data.
  You can find more details about reserved space by reading THIS article.
