Made me laugh. I needed the extra capacity hard drive for longer recordings. Units with less camera functionality also come with smaller hard drives that cannot be upgraded as much as this one. I only have 8 cameras.

8 channel reolink NVR's only support a max of 12 TB. This model (36 channel) supports a max of 48 TB. @acbissessar At 0:59, those are for sensors and alarms. Have you by chance tried out that functionality?

@@bl1751 I have not tried out the sensors or alarms. My focus was the ability to add large storage hard drives.

@@Andrewsnotes1 Thanks for answering. Another question if you dont mind, how is the performance when viewing all the camera streams? I have the reolink 8 channel NVR with 6 cameras currently but I find that the streams jitter/stutter. I'm wondering if this is a hardware limitation and if the 36 channel NVR has better hardware to support better streaming when viewing around 8 channels. Thanks in advance.

I have no issue with streaming using the reolink app over my LAN network, with cat 5e hardwired between the DVR and my computer. There are many factors that can cause this: high camera resolution, incompatible DVR hard drive, too many cameras, inadequate video card on your computer, slow computer, network and wifi congestion.

What a joke, you need to PoE router for this turd?

Yes unfortunately. Costs Do add up especially when you need hard drives. You are really buying the software in a box.

It does serve a need for those who want to have local POE switch and a centralized NVR. The unit is inexpensive and accommodates a lot of storage space. It avoids running lengthy POE cable for 36 devices. You can place this anywhere on your network and not have to run all cables to home. Quite flexible.

@@paulkrupa Yes absolutely, but for security I try to get all the cameras on a dedicated POE switch to the unit with its own IP addresses, so someone cannot pull the network cable from a camera and get access to your network.
