Vague QVIS question

Sorry for the vagueness on product specific details...

 

A guy has rang me & asked if its possible to add an external HDD onto a QVIS (old analogue) DVR... His DVR HDD is knackered & wondered if he could add his own.

 

Does anyone know if this is possible? If not what are the chances of getting a replacement HDD or will it be replacement unit only.

id say you could just replace it but keep 2tb or lower

Guessing you'd have to source IDE drive, or SATA convertor if old.

Also possible the machine will not record to External if internal is faulty.

that's true as 6wb if its pata then sourcing a drive will be difficult

Not sure about embedded but wasn't 2TB the max for any PATA interface on the average winbox?

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

 

I've had it on some old data stuff. also on 64 bit Linux machines not booting due a gpt issue iirc

MBR only supports addressing upto 32 bits which is the limitation on 2TB

I don't recall seeing a PATA drive larger than 750GB.

No, I guess they were dead by then... But guessing a 2TB SATA on a PATA>SATA adaptor would work?

You'd hope so.
