Unless your main dvr has some sort of DLNA functionality, I'm going to lean towards no. You most likely are not going to able to watch recorded shows.

I did calculation before. As I can remember, roughly speaking, for a 250GB hard drive(I put a 2.5 inch sata laptop hard drive inside the box), I could make uninterrupted recordings from two channel cameras for 2 weeks long.

I am not qualified to answer your question. I was directed by my IT person to purchase the item to repair surveillance DVR. Sorry.

I have to use continuous mode because several cameras are switched through. With a 32 Gig card (The largest it will handle) about 24 hours. That also depends on what you are recording, all my cameras are outside so there is always changing images. If you were recording in your home for instance where the walls, floor, furniture etc. don't change you'll probably get better time due to the way video compression works.

You can record on all 8 cameras at the same time. It depends on the quality of video you choose for all 8 cameras. The best thing to do is set up the cameras for motion detection. That way it uses up less space on your dvr and you're more likely to get 30+ days of recording time.

I purchased one and installed on my DVR box (SA Explore 8300HDC). The DVR recognized the drive and prompted for formatting the drive. Another reboot of the DVR and every thing works. I did not lose my previously recorded video. Thanks,--CY

Absolutely. I replaced my older "Q-See" dvr with this one and my cameras work the same.

I have the 8 camera system that records all 8 cameras 24/7 and it records for 16 days and then it just starts recording over the old data. For the 4 camera system recording at 24/7 I would imagine that it doubles that amount. Like another reviewer said you can set it up to record on motion sensor only and same thing to send you pictures to your phone on motion sensor only.

The last one I boughtcame to me pre set...just hooked it up to power and turned it on.

Yes, this camera is compatible with the DVR you purchased. According to the specs of your DVR, it will be able to display the camera's 720p image @ 30 fps.

Yes, but only for one camera, plus only for 8 hours maximum without changing discs. That is not too practical for most security applications. DVRs designed for this purpose are much better as they have more features and allow much longer recording times.

I'm not sure, I know that it can operate more than 3 on 1 dvr. It depends on how you program it and what protocol your using as well as the protocol on the dvrs.

I have a 500 gig with 8 cameras 30 frames per second. I record 24/ 7 on 2nd from highest resolution and I get 7 days before it records over. In my opinion 1 TB w 16 cameras would be the same 1 week. You can adjust frames per second, resolution, or you can adjust some or all cameras to record when they see motion, plus I am sure other adjustments: All of which would add days to your record "time"

I do not know.. But, I can tell you that I have the 4 cam system on motion sensor (event) recording. With a busy store it can often record continous all day, until we close the store and then it doesn't record much other than a security guard walking by the entrance a few times overnight.. Typically, I am experiencing 17-19 days of recording with the 1TB drive.

Yes...I purchased it last Nov. Assuming you have a DVR that has an eSATA connection and not one of the older models then you simply follow the steps to expand the storage. It worked great and now we don't have to worry about having to delete stuff prior to recording.

In "layman's terms," how much time does 32GB provide in recordings? (hours? minutes?)
