Note: The DVR is, basically, a dedicated (meaning that it performs a single task, recording video) computer. The
internal components are complex and fragile. Whilst changing the hard drive is a relatively straight forward procedure
for people who are familiar with assembling and modifying computer hardware, it may be challenging for people who
are not. In the latter case, we suggest taking the DVR to a qualified computer technician, who will be very familiar
with the process of installing a hard drive.
