Macohead 0 Posted February 4, 2015 Hello, I purchased one of those 8CH super mini NVRs from Aliexpress. I managed to hook everything up and get it all working EXCEPT for the storage. I bought a 1TB WD passport USB drive, but as soon as I hook it up to the NVR it begins to slow it down to the point where you click something it takes a minute for the click to register and makes the system unusable. Can anyone offer a solution to this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ericq 0 Posted March 1, 2015 It's preferred imo to use USB 3.0 or eSATA when doing small external drive setups and drives that are 7200rpm. Typical WD USB drives are 5400rpm which could cause issues for keeping up on read/writes of video but if you bought a box that only does USB 2.0 at slower speeds that could be an issue as well or maybe it's something with the OS or VMS you are using. sorry couldn't offer more.

invader7 0 Posted March 16, 2015 Can you please tell me if you have black random image in some of the streams? I have 3 cameras loosing image for a while. I'm asking because I couldn't understand the stream type choice! Thanks Try to format the disk and to attach it when nvr is closed. I suggest formatting at ntfs and then plug it in when nvr is off power Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
