    Hard drive size and brand questions

    That's exactly how I had read it. Multiplicity is it's leg up over red. However there are two tiers of purple drives. Purple, and Purple NV. Purple is supposed to be used in DVRs, while the NV equivalent is for NVRs. Mine has 4x 4TB purples (the non-NV kind) and it is a 16 channel Hikvision NVR...

    Hard drive size and brand questions

    I am guessing NAS drives are the opposite, read optimization over write? Generally I don't buy into product descriptions because it's more marketing than engineering, I need to know why/how or some sort of truth behind it, in order for me to justify the added expense. Seagate drives are marketed...

    Hard drive size and brand questions

    I was told that Purples were rebranded reds with different firmware to better handle continuous I/O, but I would like to hear input from the WD expert on that. Both are equally reliable drives so my view on them doesn't change. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Very interesting info. I've always had good luck with Hitachi drives and HGST as well so good to hear they're still making them. The Samsung/Seagate merger though, I know for a fact is the case because of the higher failure rate and the fact that they bear a Seagate model number and warranty...

    Recommendations For A New PoE System

    It depends on what your needs are. If you're looking for standard run of the mill fixed cameras, I would recommend Hikvision without question. If you're going the PTZ route, while I've never personally worked with them, I'm told Huisun has better offerings in terms of value per dollar with...

    Question for owners of Hikvision NVR with alarm inputs.

    7700s have alarm and dry contact I/O (you'll see in pics they have green terminal blocks), 7600s do not. Email/push alerts have always been a touchy subject and there's no pattern of correlation as to when they work or when they don't. However, I do know that if you attempt to use Gmail with...

    Looking for rack mount ears for Hikvision 7608 NVR

    Every 7600 and 7700 I've purchased has come with them. The narrow model in my picture is the first of the batch that has not included them. It's hard to say what the determinant is here. For what it's worth, the last one purchased had a manufacturer date of 12/2015 (slim one) and the wider one...

    Ambarella VS TI davinci VS Hisilicon , What is better ?

    ... *MAY* not have problems later. Not will. No one can make guarantees. I work mostly with Hikvision products, and they have their moments on occasion. But they're the best I've worked with so far overall. Certain aspects about them I don't like over others but I learn to live with it. No one...

    Ambarella VS TI davinci VS Hisilicon , What is better ?

    I don't think the chipset will play a strong hand when it comes to compatibility, moreover matching brands and/or ONVIF (a compatibility standard) will. That's like asking if an AMD graphics card will work in an Intel system; PCI express (or whatever bus it uses, if older) is the standard that...

    Looking for rack mount ears for Hikvision 7608 NVR

    The 7608s normally include ears. However I recently purchased one that was not a full width recorder so is not rack mountable. It also didn't come with ears. Take a look at these pics I took about a month ago. Do you have the narrower one? As far as a solution goes, I haven't found one. I...

    Does Hikvision Europe....

    Those were just released within the last couple months. Those are bleeding edge and also significantly more expensive. I do like how they've packed in a 16 PoE into 1U. If they were more affordable I'd jump ship to those for future projects. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    If a permit is involved, absolutely run it by the person that gives you your gold star for not screwing anything up before you waste labor and supplies. However, a lot of CCTV installs are "over the top" installs and in the vast majority of jurisdictions permits aren't required for things like...

    NVR Hanging during boot up

    We had both already mentioned that, I said Google flagged it as malware and Alastair said the software could be found on shady websites. There's no question about it, but if you sidestep that warning, you'll find the website shows 503 service unavailable. It wouldn't have worked anyways. Some...

    NVR Hanging during boot up

    Windows is fussy when transferring installs. You need to install it directly on the system itself. Once you get past the "copying files" section of the install it begins to load hardware specific drivers. This usually happens when you install Windows on Intel or AMD and transfer it to a system...

    Cameras in a commercial parking garage, Mounting to joist

    This is more a question of IBC. NEC has no governance over this as it's not electrical (the mounting part). There is a maximum hole size that is permitted when drilling through a load-bearing support and typically you go to the center most point of the beam, avoiding any of the extreme edges...

    DS-7608NI-E2 Install

    If you just now activated it, go ahead and try to sign into the web interface in Safari or FF (no chrome). See if it lets you in. DHCP usually isn't a default option with these. It's usually static like 192.0.0.64, or 192.168.1.64. That's interesting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    DS-7608NI-E2 Install

    What I meant by that was a chinese-regioned device. Looking at your S/N in the picture, it has AARR, not CCCH, so it is a western region/US regioned device. The reason this is not working is because you have an outdated version of iVMS as I previously stated. This is what it should look like...

    Unforwarding ports?

    You may need to factory reset your router. Also make sure it's running the latest firmware. This router is circa 2003 so it might be a bit stubborn when working with it. Sometimes when stuff ages it just doesn't play nice with newer stuff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Unforwarding ports?

    I know this sounds like the silliest answer but have you power cycled both devices? Sounds like something is cached in the routing table of the router and hasn't been cleared out. Which brings to question 2, at any point were these ports open, and you just now decided to close them? Or were...
