The Hikvision iDS-9664NXI-P8R is a 64-channel DeepinMind Pro network video recorder with four GPU engines, AcuSeek, eight SATA bays, full RAID and a redundant power supply.
Four GPU engines, and you choose what they do
This is the meaningful difference from the standard DeepinMind range, which has two fixed engines. The P8R has one GPU engine dedicated to AcuSeek plus three configurable engines, and each of those three can be assigned to whichever job the site needs:
- Facial recognition — 8-ch video target capture at 4 MP, or 32-ch image comparison
- Perimeter protection — 12-ch video analysis at 2 MP, or 32-ch image analysis
- Video structuralisation — 8-ch structured analysis at 2 MP
- AcuSearch — 16-ch at 2 MP by the recorder itself
In practice that means a car park can put its engines on ANPR and perimeter, while a retail site puts the same hardware on faces and structuralisation. One recorder, configured to the job. Note that to use AcuSeek at least one engine must be set to AcuSearch mode.
The R is a redundant power supply
Two supplies rather than one. If a PSU fails, the recorder keeps running instead of stopping — which on a 64-camera system carrying evidence is the difference between a service call and a gap in the footage. That is what separates this from the iDS-9664NXI-M8/X, and it is easy to miss in the model number.
Numbers worth knowing
- Face comparison across 64 channels — every channel, at 32 pictures per second
- AcuSeek and AcuSearch: 600,000 targets a day with AcuSense cameras; without them, 32-ch at 2 MP or 8-ch at 8 MP using ordinary IP cameras
- Perimeter protection without Large Model: 36-ch at 2 MP — half again more than the standard DeepinMind models
- 20 TB per disk rather than 16 TB, so 160 TB across eight bays

What you'll need with it
- Hard drives — none are supplied. Eight 3.5-inch bays at up to 20 TB. RAID 5 costs one disk to parity, RAID 6 costs two. Size it with our CCTV storage calculator.
- A decision about engine allocation. Three engines, four possible jobs — the right split depends on what the site is for. Tell us what you need to detect and we will talk it through before you order.
- PoE switches for sixty-four cameras, and rack space with proper airflow.
Frequently asked questions
What does the R mean?
Redundant power supply — two PSUs, so a single failure does not stop the recorder.
How is it different from the iDS-9664NXI-M8/X?
Four GPU engines instead of two, and they are configurable. AcuSeek included. Face comparison on all 64 channels rather than 48. 20 TB disks rather than 16 TB. And the redundant power supply.
Do I need AcuSense cameras?
For the full 600,000 targets a day, yes. Without them the recorder still does AcuSearch and AcuSeek on up to 32 channels at 2 MP using ordinary IP cameras — which is unusual and worth knowing.
Does it come with hard drives?
No. Eight 3.5-inch SATA drives up to 20 TB each, supplied separately.
