    Swann NVR8580 and NHD887 Firmware - update??

    So I've recently installed a Swann NVR8580RN and 6x NHD887FN cameras. So far so good, but this is a replacement for a previous 8580 system that bricked itself after a couple of months, so I'm wary. Both the NVR and cameras say there are firmware updates available. My question is whether I...
