sixwheeledbeast Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 So I take it you haven't found the fault and it is still an issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aissecur Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Hi, sorry for the late reply... The unit seems to of righted itself after changing the hard drive & fitting a hum eliminator to camera 1. Fingers crossed it keeps on working Thanks for your help / support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datadiffusion Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Interesting, and this is to do with the write not read operations I believe? Might get away with it. The benefits will perhaps outweigh the disadvantages. Application is going to be one of your 4 way analogue DVRs on my van, with recording only with engine on and up to half an hour after key-out. For PSU have a 15v to 12v chinoise regulator off ebay. Front windscreen has a very cheap (but perfectly OK so far) HD all-in-one that I was given also to evaluate, that has it's own lithium batt on board. Had to buy my own memory though!

sixwheeledbeast Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Interesting, and this is to do with the write not read operations I believe? Yes, flash wear from writing or deleting data. Even with wear levelling a SSD in a device that is constantly writing to disk will not last long. About 3000 cycles of the drive before it will become unreliable. So smaller drives would be quicker to die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 3000 or 300000? Seems low? Quote So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
