Video & Storage
Plan retention, storage sizing, RAID impact, and export reality — before the install.
Storage problems rarely show up during quoting. They show up later as “retention is short,” “exports don’t fit,” and “we need more drives.” These tools help you size storage from real inputs and understand what RAID does to usable capacity and survivability before the install gets locked into assumptions that are hard to unwind later.
Video & Storage Planning Guide
Walk through the Video & Storage design process before opening individual tools. The guide explains the linear planning flow, supporting checks, and the assumptions worth documenting before storage and retention targets are treated as complete.
Start with the first step. Build toward the full design.
Some ScopedLabs tools work as a connected workflow. In Video & Storage, the Design Flow starts with bitrate, rolls into storage sizing, turns that into retention, then finishes by testing RAID behavior and retention survivability under degraded conditions so the design is evaluated as a system instead of as isolated calculator outputs.
The flow includes both Free and Pro tools. Pro access unlocks the full sequence for deeper planning, exportable reports, and saved design snapshots.

ScopedLabs Pro unlocks deeper storage and survivability modeling for high-density systems, long retention requirements, archive planning, and degraded-failure scenarios where design margin really matters.
