pir8teslife 0 Posted January 19, 2015 Hi folks, I recently came across 2 dvr units in my closet that I had picked up over the summer and need to deal with them. I know very little about these units or even if they are worth messing with. Any help provided would be greatly appreciated. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- dvr 16ch no power supply (uses a 4-pin dc 12v) mic: ags-jsd-1600a(a) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- dvr 4ch no power supply (dc 12v) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Securame 0 Posted January 19, 2015 I would say that any DVR that is still using ATA hard disks is not worth the time. They can be used as "fake" units. When doing a real installation, puting the real DVR hidden somewhere, and using an old DVR unit left in plain sight. So if there is a break in, the thiefs will steal the fake DVR, and will not know that there is another unit hiding somewhere. Other than that, I would not pay more than $5-$10 for those. Shipping costs anywhere will be more expensive than the unit themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jazzar 0 Posted January 20, 2015 ref the first unit- I am sure I recently came across one complete with operators manual- but this did not provide any useful information regarding a manufacturer, think its just a generic unit probably from China. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
