    Home DVR Question

    This is not a Capture Digital made device. What you have is a pretty high-end commercial-grade DVR made by a Korean manufacturer (always better quality than chinese OEM DVRs) named AVCOREA. The same manufacturer who makes the OEM boards for most of the big name US-based security product makers - and even the smaller ones like Capture Digital... It is about 4 years old, but still MPEG4 (instead of the older MJPEG). The only real drawback I see is that it uses the older technology hard disk drives (EIDE, or IDE) Modern SATA drives are now standard and the costs have plummeted in comparison (example: 250GB IDE hard drive sold 3 years ago for $200+.... 1000GB (1TB) SATA hard drives sell now for around 80 bucks. It is a much better machine than most people get when they buy home surveillance 'packages' or 'kits' and get inferior products bundled together.
