my DVR for my cctv is only a 4ch one. with 250 gb HDD.

originally bought from Maplins about 5 yrs ago.

was thinking of getting a newer one.. maybe 6ch or 8ch so I can add more cameras if I feel like it.

anyone recommend one, that's not stupid money??
I'm not bothered about getting access via the net etc


is Ebay best place to look.. as I've upgraded my cameras over the years via ebay and had good VFM on camera picture quality.


tnx.

I've moved that to a safer place ... its in a cloud i think

I use a Dedicated Micros Sprite DS2P 16-way, (Silver in colour). Mega money when new but older 6, 9 or 16-way models can be picked up on eBay for decent money compared to a brand new Chinese no brand. You need one with passwords set to default though or it could be a big paperweight. DM have a simple and extremely effective menu with lots of functions.

I probably have a serviced spare DS2 16-way available soon when a main replacement arrives for my current DS2P. If you're interested, just PM me.

That's because he lives on a huge estate with his massive GSDs, and he's proper minted.

Depends how serious your set-up is I guess. At £170 you surely can't get something that'll last but maybe you can. The spec looks OK and they are local to you if it melts in a week or so.

Spoon

Yes but they are bloódy good and mine have run 24/7 without so much as a fárt.

Spoon

Oh how my staff laughed.

Good to see you back here. Hope Sydney is doing well.

Spoon

Turbs, I thought I'd swing by and take a look in. Hope you're well.

I've just been around the house and then outside but can't find any sign of a Sydney.

Turbohot

I'm ok, spoon. Thanks. Just watching the world go by, which is good.

About a Sydney, there was one.

I thought it was a he, but you said it was a she.

There was a 'Pond' thread over a year ago here, where you posted the pictures of your magnificent ponds, a humungous grass snake and mentioned a Sydney.

I have good memory, so here we go>

Good to look at that thread again. Some wonderful pics there.

Spoon

No, I remember Sydney well, Turbs. I caught her.

I just took a look around to make sure she wasn't still here.

Turbohot

Ah!
