I have a client with a recently installed Dahua 16ch NVR (NVR504L-16/16p - 4KS2E) that had a break-in and perps eventually broke into the equipment room and broke thru the metal cage of the rack mount and stole the NVR.
Naturally, now they want an option to also record or instant backup data to another storage device in another part of the building or to the cloud.
They're utilizing 11 Dahua 4MP cameras with constant recording (can't use motion recording in this particular location).
We would only need 12-36 hours or so of secondary location recording, in case the NVR gets smashed or stolen again.
Security suggestions set aside, have you used anything that's reasonably priced for resi jobs that would do the job?
External HDD connected to NVR is I think out of the question, due to the proximity to the NVR -- think fire or water damage, as well as theft of hardware, as in this case.
I'm thinking QNAP or Sylology-type device, but have never done instant backup or dual recording.
