never had this issue with any NVR i have used in the past for the last 15 years, still doesn't explain why a section of footage was there one day and gone the next for ALL cameras.
Does the NVR have the ability to see the HDD SMART attributes, as Hikvision NVRs do?
If so - that will confirm the state of health, or lack of it, of the HDD.

This encouraged me to turn on email notifications for Disk Error under ALARM-> Exceptions. At 42601 and 42018 Power On Hours Count they’re probably living on borrowed time
not a bad idea.

I assume you're talking to the OP but everything looks similar on my end 5232-16P-4KS2E V4.002.1CKA000.0.R, Build Date: 2023-12-05. Had never seen this screen, always finding new buttons to click

Its not a FW thing I wouldnt go down that rabbit hole.
I was simply inquiring on the newer version. Im happy with the one I have no need to risk borking things up if no problem.

If you’re not absolutely positively prepared for the NVR to never work again, don’t even try it. I have a spare one and like I said I’m willing to take a risk with this stuff and possibly be frustrated for days until I figure it out
