Remote setup. No internet so wireless/networking etc... not needed.

Currently have:
1 2032 (3 more after getting first up)
1 TP Link 8 port POE switch
1 4TB hd
HikVision 4200 software

Need nvr suggestions. Setup needs to record, motion only, for a minimum of 5-6 days. Really don't need a fancy/complex/expensive device. Low power consumption a plus. Want to easily be able to plug in laptop when I arrive to view past weeks video.
I'm usually at location every weekend.

Thanks
Tom
 
Something like this? Hikvision - DS-7604NI-SE/P - Nvr 4ch 4-poe

Yep :) or the bit cheaper 78 series

How much hd do I really need for a weeks worth of motion recording?

Depends on the size of the areas and how much motion is going on, also the pre and post event record times... lol :rolleyes:

However.... 1TB could be way more than enough, so maybe 500G ?
 
Hard drives a really cheap...just get a 3 or 4 terabyte WD purple drive and be done with it..would be a shame to miss footage to save a few dollars on a drive.
