It does not need an external hard drive... but it does need an internal drive... it a great DVR. Google search the Sunluxy and find the specs for the particular hard drive required.

The unit doesn't come with a internal drive you have to add one to make it record

No, this is a pretty terrible product in my experience. The only way to use it at all is with the network mode. Save yourself the trouble and just buy a stand alone hard drive.

very little, you will need some kind of external device for storage and any extra programs or apps.

Absolutely, no software is required. Plug and play, it acts just like a thumb drive or a DVD it's simply a storage device.

Not unless you have the right software to only read the hard drive. This device only turns the Hard Drive into an External Device. It has no options whatsoever.

No, however if you get it with the hard drive you can back it up to a flash drive. Otherwise it's a waste of money if you get one with no hard drive.

My Koolertron did not connect to my ipad for any purpose, so no, it would not connect to an external hard drive.

Great question. I purchased and configured several but never attemped to test without a HD. I honestly don"t know but imagine it would since there is an option to select internal HD or USB HD. However, this is a solid product and is an excellent substitute for a external HD.

I have not personally tried a external hdd, I do know a xbox controller works, a keyboard and a mouse work, make sure the external hdd has its own power source as I tried using speakers and it fried my s3, and small usb flash drives also work,

Well depends where are you downloading the software. But I'm sure or not it might work. But if your downloading the software on that external hard drive and put it inside there i think it will work or not.

No, it's an unformatted drive with no software loaded. You will need your own software to load.

Yes, it will work without an internet connection. The program CD has a Docs folder that has a 293-page Reference Manual in pdf format and a 30-page Getting Started Guide also in pdf format. An internet connection would connect you to detailed online help which is faster but you can also look up such help in the Manual and Guide after you copy the pdf files into your computer from the CD.

I don't think it would work... The product requires that software be installed on each machine. It's doubtful that the external hard drive would have the processor to run a program. I could be wrong, of course, but having used the product myself, my thought is that it won't work.

Probably not. This is a replacement/upgrade for a laptop. It is not designed for external use.

I don't recommend using a USB flash drive. Use a powered external hard drive.
