Thanks a lot for the info guys.. I greatly appreciate it..

Would this one work out for me? 4 PORT POWER SUPPLY BOX AUTO-RESED Input AC 110-240V Output: 12V DC 6A Terminal Connection Max Draw: 6A Support up to 4 Cameras http://www.ebay.com/itm/320585130280?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619

The cameras don't say anything on them other than Sony XR Pro.. There's nothing on them that says how much power. I got them on ebay like 5 + years ago.. Sorry for the dumb question, but I know nothing about this stuff..

I have 4 cameras around my house and each one has it's own power supply. They all plug in behind the monitor and DVR so they're all close together. Anyways, two of the power supplies burnt out and I need to replace them. I want to get one power supply w/splitter that can power all 4 cameras instead of having the 4 PS's.. So, my question is, what power supply do I need? I see them on ebay for $15.00 and under, but not sure of what I need power wise. The single power supplies I have now say they're: Input: 100-240V~ 50/60Hz Output: 12V - 1A What should the power supply that will feed 4 cameras be? Thanks!!

Today is a week and a day since I put the new HD in and it's working great. I've been pretty much running it 24/7 and as of right now it's only at 50%.. Looks like I'll get two weeks of non stop recording before it rewrites. With the 80G I was only getting close to like 3 days. So I'm very happy with this so far and thanks again for all your help.

I'm looking for a remote control for my stand alone DVR. I have no idea what brand this DVR is, but here are a couple of pictures of it. I can't find a name on this thing anywhere. Just thought I'd give this a shot in case anyone here may have had one of these before and still may have the old remote laying around. So, if this DVR looks like one you may have had at one time, and you have the remote you wanna let go pretty cheap, get back to me. Or, if you know what brand this DVR is and know where I can get one, let me know.. Thanks

I'm happy with the way it's working now. The old HD did start to act up when the power went out one day. I should get a battery backup on it. It's pretty quiet. I think the little fan is louder. I got it on sale at the local Best buys here retail. I don't have good luck buying online.. What do you know about illuminators? I'm gonna need to look into one. I want to get more light in the driveway.. Even with a flood light my camera's not working all that great. It has 36 LED's and they all work. Do they get weak, or just burn out or both?

They had that on sale so I grabbed it. It seems to run just a little different. Not sure why, but in playback it seems to studder a little more than before. It's at 30 frames per second on high resolution. That's the best it'll do on this old thing. Not sure if the bigger HD is causing that or not.. Could be in my head too.. I haven't used it in about a month.. But it's working again so I'm a happy camper. I changed it to normal resolution and I'll see how that goes when I check it in the morning.

OK, I went to my local Bestbuy and got the WD Blue 320G for $49.00 Put it in and so far it's working fine. Just thought I'd give you an update because I hate it when people ask for help and don't let anyone know how things turned out Thanks for all your help..

Cool.. I'll probably just get this one. My 80G was fine really, for what I used it for. I mainly used it at night for around the outside of the house. Eventually I'm gonna upgrade to an 8 channel, maybe a 16. Next thing I gotta look into is an illuminator. My cameras have 36 LED's, but I need a little more light.

all I ever use are WDs, never had any issues. Well then I'll probably try this one. http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3554367&CatId=134 This one should work, right?

google power saves money .... http://www.compusa.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=134&&srkey=pata Thanks, but I think I'd rather find a Seagate. Haven't had good luck with WD. Although I did just put another WD in my computer. So far so good on this one.

Well I found this one, but seems a bit expensive for a 160GIG. With Shipping it comes to $92.56. I paid $100.00 for this thing 2 years ago. Is that a good price? Can someone find better? Is this one good for me? http://lorexstore.lorextechnology.com/product.aspx?id=1703#

It's the PATA.

Thanks again.. I don't really need a 500Gig, 80 is fine.. I might as well go a little bigger though. 160G sounds good or maybe something like a 300G if available. You say the best deals are online. Can you give me a couple of good trustworthy sites? The DVR has been down for a few weeks now and I'd like to get it back up. Right now I have it hooked to a.........................................Wait for It..............................................................................VCR
