iTs Designs 0 Posted August 24, 2011 Just plugged together the unit, the 'video out' shows the DVRs bootup txt, which pauses upon detection of the hard drive, and says internal hard drive = 0mb. Ive checked the drive with my PC which recognises it straight away, and i reformatted it to both NTFS and FAT32 still to no avail, im running out of ideas. DVR running linux? Format to Ext? Any help is verry appreciated, Thanks. Joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TaylorQVIS 0 Posted August 24, 2011 Possibly faulty SATA cable or cables coming off the power supply? Swap those and try again if you already haven't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sidoffice 0 Posted August 27, 2011 Alternatively it may well be the HDD that you are using.. some dvr's do not like certain manufacturer of HDD, try seagate barracuda or western digital Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
