V1 recording-storage guide

Size recording storage separately from the appliance system SSD.

The 1 TB SSD in the sourced MINISFORUM configurations is primarily system storage for the OS, VMS, containers, logs, updates and AI software. AnyAiCam recording capacity should be selected separately.

Planning baseline: H.265, 4MP, 15 FPS, motion/event recording at approximately 25% activity. Actual retention varies with camera bitrate, scene complexity, night noise, frame rate and motion level.

AnyAiCam Residential VMS — Ryzen 5

Entry-level home appliance · $949.99

For homes: recording storage is sized to your cameras, recording mode and retention, using the same guide as above.

AnyAiCam Starter

MINISFORUM AI X1-255 · Ryzen 7 255 · $1,249.99

Practical V1 approach: 1 TB system SSD plus separate 2 TB or 4 TB recording storage for smaller motion/event systems. Use larger external/NAS storage when retention or workload requires it.

AnyAiCam Professional

MINISFORUM AI X1 · Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 · $1,749.99

Practical V1 approach: 1 TB system SSD plus 4 TB recording storage for typical 8–16-camera motion/event designs, with external/NAS capacity for larger or longer-retention systems.

Capacity policy: do not plan to fill the recording volume completely. AnyAiCam sizing should preserve free space for retention rotation, indexes, thumbnails, temporary clips and recovery. Continuous recording and 8MP/4K cameras require substantially more storage.

VMS, integrated Face Access and standalone access hardware

Simple rule: VMS-only = AnyAiCam Starter (MINISFORUM AI X1-255 · Ryzen 7 255) or AnyAiCam Professional (MINISFORUM AI X1 · Ryzen AI 9 HX 470). Commercial AAC Face Access = AnyAiCam Enterprise appliance (access-control platform integrations coming soon); for homes, the AnyAiCam Residential VMS — Ryzen 5 covers front-door facial recognition for up to 5 household members. Face Access door control = Numato relay (it can also trigger a door or gate on its own). VMS-only systems do not need the relay.

Premium appliance for Face Access workloads, not the default VMS appliance.

AnyAiCam Enterprise — Face Access

MINISFORUM AI X1 Pro-470 · $2,249.99

Separate AAC appliance: for commercial facial recognition and access-policy processing, more face cameras and larger face databases. Liveness checks and access-control platform integrations are coming soon. Standard VMS buyers should use the AnyAiCam Starter (MINISFORUM AI X1-255 · Ryzen 7 255) or AnyAiCam Professional (MINISFORUM AI X1 · Ryzen AI 9 HX 470).
