How is it better to use two drives: for capacity or for redundancy?

If the archive is a priority, the drives are combined into a linear array; if data protection is important, RAID-1 with mirroring is configured.

Does the recorder support mobile access?

Yes, through the Hik-Connect app you can view live video and the archive from a mobile device at any time.

Is it possible to receive notifications when an alarm is triggered?

Yes, the device supports push notifications to a smartphone when the motion detector or alarm input is triggered.
