Hey there! So I ended up buying the dahua technology pro series 4 channel DVR. It came today and I hooked it all up and it's all working great, even the HDD I installed from the old DVR is working properly! EXCEPT - I am having 1 issue. The pictures attached of the grey wire is the wire that...

Thank you, much appreciated.

Wasn't able to find that, only found a used 1 for $70 - Would you mind linking it? - I'll order it right now!

Much appreciated response, this seems to be the consesus here - I wish I found this fourms before I spent a bunch of time researching in other places wasting hours of my time! -- I am going to be ordering another DVR something with just 4-channels for the time being, until the management agency...

LOL! Thats hilarious because its very likely to happen....especially here in NY! I will look for a 4 CH. DVR then that way I'm only pulling $100 out of my pocket. and we only have 4 cams up currently. Then whatever they decide to do later on, I may come back here and share with you... if for...

Much appreciated for all your help. - I agree $220 is nothing for a large building. But I doubt they will cover the cost of it because they are intending to redo the entire system. They want to throw out all of what we have in place, and get some really really good high quality cameras (and add...

Thank you, thats what I was thinking. So for sure it's not a PSU issue then. Maybe fender is right, maybe when the PSU blew, it maybe somehow shorted something on the motherboard or what-not... because I have no clue whats wrong with it at this point!

Alright, fair point. What do you think about a used DVR for cheaper, maybe closer to $100 for the time being... Just to get me through the next few months. ALSO, if I bought the 1 with NO HDD, could I take the old HDD out of my old DVR and install it in to the new DVR with no HDD? Or would...

220? looks like it's $354 without an HDD! Also, I appreciate your response. I am currently in a situation where the management group of my building will be upgrading the buildings CCTV's to high def / new technology shortly. They were intending to do it before Covid broke out, but that...

I have an Eyemax 960H DVR that had been working for several years without an issue. One day I noticed the monitor that usually shows my camera feeds was just a black screen. I went to check on the DVR box and it didn't have any power at all, leading me to believe the PSU had burnt out after...
