I wasn't sure about sticking to Amcrest (due to app issues with worn unit) brand-new NVR fixed that
My older NVR that had a blend of older coax camera inputs and EOIP cams died on me after several years.So I bought this one which did require abandoning the obsolete coax video cameras and move on to only EOIP cams and Wi-Fi IP cams.One good thing with this change was that the latest Android App that had timeout issues when used on the old NVR to remote connect, no longer has those issues.This one also has 8 port EOIP inputs so that means the 8 channels hard wired will not be loading down my local home network to feed the NVR. So that is good. Only my Wi-Fi or any remote wired IP cams will be using my local network.

Magnificent NVR controller to manage 16 IP cameras
Having tried various other manufacturers of camera surveillance equipment including Q-See, Everfocus, I am quite pleased with the overall performance of the Amcrest products, especially the NVRs which offer many features and functions. USA based with excellent customer tech support along with plenty of training videos online. Recently Carlos B has provided detailed helpful responses to my inquires when questions arise, either through emails, chats, or phone calls. I will continue to recommend the Amcrest product line to all my future customers in my camera security business.

Excellent NVR - Smaller Footprint than Anticipated and That's a Solid Thing
The NVR was packaged nicely and arrived on time. At first taking it out of the box it way smaller than I was expecting. For some reason I was expecting twice the size as I took it out of the box I was pleasantly surprised to see it was again, much smaller than anticipated. It fit nicely in my rack on the top shelf along with the POE switch I connected it too. Before doing that, I installed the 4TB hard drive I bought that was very easy to install and setup. Nothing to it! I took the case off and slid the drive in and connected the cables and put the cover back on. That was it, very simple and it took me all of ten minutes, if that, to do. Next, I connected the HDMI cable to my Denon receiver and I used the NVR software to find and add my cameras. Having all of my cameras ONVIF compatible didn't hurt and it made it very easy. The image of my cameras seem to be better than using their own included software and I was able to find the hard drive and format it and use it right away. I've read some of the other reviews and obviously there are those who are technically challenged. Make sure you have any wireless cameras in the same network and you'll find them like I did with no problem. Also, the PoE switch ports have no settings. Just connect the cat cable and it should work just fine. I didn't have any issues and the entire process took minutes. I'm very happy with this NVR and I highly recommend it to anybody looking for an NVR to consolidate all of their cameras into one place to look at and maintain.

Performs with 18TB WD Purple Pro
I purchased in February of 2020 in order to secure my house. The 4TB drive was initially enough to keep a couple weeks of footage on it for 7 cameras. Well as of February of 2023, I noticed that I could only keep about 5 days of footage on the 4TB drive. So I did some research and found out that the average life of a NVR Hard Drive is around 3 years. So I sought out a replacement drive, the 18TB Western Digital Purple Pro.When I first installed the WD Purple Pro, I noticed that the NVR was only seeing 4TB of the drive when it was mounted but seeing the full capacity when doing a sector check. I thought this to be strange. I started doing some research and found out that some people have gotten higher capacity drives to work properly with this NVR with a firmware update. I updated the firmware and reformatted the drive and the full 18TB showed up as a mounted drive.Overall I'm very happy with the NVR and I will continue to use Amcrest products in the future!
