Potential HDD bottleneck

Hello, I'm planning to record 1080p 15fps H264 footage (24/7) from 26 IP cameras. The HDD is gonna be a single 8TB Seagate Skyhawk Surveillance HDD. 

Question is... Will the IP cameras bottleneck my HDD? (HDD will be used only for recording the footage, & the network connection is 1 gigabit).

It's simple enough to calculate once you know the bitrate of the video. Try finding that out first.
