in D1 with 1 audio channel I can go back about 12 days with 7 cameras. If you ran all 8 I suspect you would get about 10 days in D1.

It does do the following: Selectable: NTSC: D1(704 x 480); HD1(704 x 240); CIF (352 x 240) / PAL: D1(704 x 576); HD1(704 x 288); CIF (352 x 288 So you have your choice of D1 or CIF. D1 uses the most disk space and is required in some situations that have legal ramifications. I have been using Zmodo to many people's unbelief but never had a problem. Here is the full specs on the machine you are looking at: http://www.zmodo.com/4ch-h-264-full-d1-dvr-500gb-hdd-with-4-cmos-480tvl-ir-outdoor-security-cameras-with-11-leds.html So yes it is D1 or CIF your choice. Set up a field array where it only records if something moves in the zone. Too much and you run out of disk space or start overwriting your earlier recordings.

There is no storage by "default". You must purchase a hard drive and install it into the DVR. MAKE SURE YOU GET A HARD DRIVE RATED FOR DVR USE!!! There is a 500g and a 1T size recommended by Amazon. Look here: WD AV-GP 1 TB AV Video Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, SATA III, 64 MB Cache - WD10EURX and here: WD Blue 500GB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 16MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD5000AAKX

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.

D1 CCTV resolution is 704 x 480 pixels and is the highest resolution the CCTV system can record at. High end digital video recorders offer this resolution and only the highest end recorders can offer D1 resolution at 30 frames per second recording.

It depends on what type of hard drive and the specifications needed for your model of security DVR. My best advice would be to contact the manufacturer of your security DVR. Sorry to be so vague, but there are just too many types of security DVRs and hard drives.

It greatly depends on the quality you record shows at. And this can be mixed, even recording by timer. Each show can be at a different quality. I record at the lowest quality and it's been a while, but I think it was 1200 hours or something outrageous. I currently have 370 programs recorded (some very short) and 187 hours left. I would generally not recommend the highest quality recording speeds because the lower and middle are very good quality and higher would just be a waste of disk space. And remember, unlike any other DVR, it is truly unlimited space if you buy a pack of DVD-R's. You can burn recordings to DVD and then delete them from the HDD. Yes, I love these devices, and I own three. It greatly depends on the quality you record shows at. And this can be mixed, even recording by timer. Each show can be at a different quality.

It word fine. I buy a 1 tb hard drive dvr, that récord a month and always érase the 31 day only

I believe the 1tb will hold 200,000 pictures, but for 30% more in cost for the 2tb you will be ensured of always having enough space.

That depends on a lot of factors, video quality settings, frame rate, and constant recording vs motion detected recording. With a 1TB drive, you could probably get 1 week with everything on the highest settings and constant recording with 16 cameras. The drive is easily upgraded and I believe it has two drive slots, not totally sure though.

Amazon is your best bet for selection and price for an internal hard drive. Just make sure it has the right SATA connectors for your DVR

If you are computer savvy it is not hard to do, I bought a 3TB internal for cheap and installed it and I have over 100 high def shows recorded and I am only using like 31% I love it.

Any SATA HD, I had a few laying around and used a 250GB, just screwed it down and plugged it in, it was ready to go. The DVR has formatting configuration pre-installed to set up your HD.

Yes see my listing for the 2TB DVR Expander from Western Digital - but note that it is only compatible with certain DVRs. See my other listings as well.

I have two SERIES 3 and considered cost. We like to record several show during prime time, the Roamio made it possible. The 3TB upgrade in recording space alone was well worth it.
