Hi, my name is Rob, I am new to this site and to security camera systems, though I have reasonable experience with computers and networks. I have been asked to assess a legacy four channel embedded dvr system which is currently functioning adequately but there is no documentation and no one on site knows anything about it. It is marked as a KE-4000, made in Korea and marketed from Hong Kong and it is fitted with a 232 Gb hd. My guess is that it was installed around the year 2000. It is running three cameras triggered by motion and we currently have approximately ten days of recorded data for viewing. We would like to increase this to about one month. Presumably that could be achieved by increasing the size of the hard drive. I have not been able to find any information for the KE-4000 on the web, but suspect that it would not recognise the current generation of hard drives. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately the budget is quite small as the present lease is about to expire so the future of the business is uncertain. Thanking you in advance Rob

Thanks for the help. Very much appreciated.

Thanks for the reply and your consideration. The advice that you've given feels right to me. that is what my instincts were telling me. Once again thanks for your generosity in giving my situation your consideration. Rob
