RottenMutt 0 Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) ok i popped in two 8TB WD red drives i got from bestbuy, shucked the usb shell and installed. I got the Thailand drives as they got 256MB sram. booted the dvr and they reported as 7.27TBytes, well first one slightly smaller as the os probably puts a swap(?) partition on it. I only connected one camera, but so far this dvr is much quieter then the lnr280 dvr. Now to install and see how they perform...
