This is a quick demo on installing a hard drive in the Hikvision 16-port NVR. This NVR is model number DS-7616 and I am installing a Western Digital Purple 4TB drive. It was cheaper for me to purchase the hard drive separately, and install it myself later. The purple drives are made for surveillance systems and can better manage the constant writing of files. I open up the NVR by removing the screws and install the HDD. I then close up the box and call it done.

Awesome video! Simple and effective, I just followed these exact instructions to install a HD at work. Thanks big time!

One of the best DIY videos I've seen! You get right to it, not a lot of dinking around, and you show the closups of the connections - thank you very much! Do you make house calls? :)

Hi, thanks for the video, I've got the same 7616 NVR, I've installed 2* 4tb purple HDDs but during and after initial setup I'm only seeing one of them, assume I've missed something?

@issaajlouny4761 5 лет назад

Great Video on hard drive install, I will be doing 300 of these. I was wondering if you have a GUI 4.0 video that shows how to playback, then show how to export a clip from the playback to a USB port. There are a lot of playback videos but not one that shows the specifics on how to move the left and right slider bars to the specific start and end times of the video clip you want to export.

Hi, would a HDD from out of a 3yr old swann view set up go in to the Hikvision, what im asking is are HDD universal and will go in from one set up to another ? Thanks in advance!

@fastmover45 6 лет назад

Good job just as a note I only put 3 screws in so you don't get torsional twist when the hdd gets hot just something for you to thunk about.

I wonder will the NVR make any noise? (e.g fan noise or HDD noise), because I live in a small home and I can only put it in my Bedroom, but I don't want it to disturb me at night, any ideas? Thanks!

Hey mate, great videos! Yours are the only ones i can understand. Lol can you help me please. Im buying a DS-7608NXI-I2/8P/S NVR and don't know what hard drive to get? Would a Western Digital 6TB WD Purple Surveillance Internal Hard Drive HDD - SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache, 3.5" - WD60PURZ be suitable for my NVR? Any help would be appreciated.

@sadiqyahaya9310 3 года назад

Thank you for this video. Please is it possible to merge two HDDs as one in hikvision NVR? If yes how

@HomeTechDIY 3 года назад

Interesting question. Have you already installed 2 drives in your NVR or are you wondering how to stripe them (RAID 0) once they are installed? I don't know if the OS will stripe them or keep them as 2 separate drives but not show the as 2 separate drives.

@JoshKaufmanstuff 5 лет назад

Thanks! Does the NVR come with Rack mounts? Can you purchase them separately if not?

@mr702s 4 года назад

Mine didn't and the bastards who sold it on Amazon (AmSecu) didn't include the fing cables to install the drives. I was able to find rack mounts online on Amazon for the NVR.

on replaceing or upgrading a hard drive, or adding another HD, do they need programming in to the system or are they just plug and play?

Once add, the drive should be formatted.

@HomeTechDIY Год назад

It could be the HDD; do you have a way of testing it in another device?

@eckathewrecka 3 года назад

I'm a novice and want to get the wiring right, I've plunged it all in as per your instructions but there is a dual power cable as shown in your install, have I seen this right and you have taped up one of the spare plug in's? A quick answer would be appreciated as I have it all in front of me.

@HomeTechDIY 3 года назад

I used a velcro wire tire to keep the wires grouped together. I did this to keep them from moving about and from ending up on top of the motherboard.

@eckathewrecka 3 года назад

@@HomeTechDIY Thanks mate for the quick reply but I asked was there a spare unused power wire that was tied up, I've since may a few inquiries and it seems that spare power wire can be used to install a second hard drive, is that correct?

Is the software to run the NVR on the NVR hardware itself, or does it need to be installed on the hard drive after the hard drive is installed into the NVR?

@HomeTechDIY 5 лет назад

Great question. Yes, the software is pre-installed on the NVR's internal "drive". No need to install any recording software; drop in a hard drive and you're all set.

@scottj9703 5 лет назад

Thanks mate!

@nichderjeniche 6 месяцев назад

My hikvision NVR came with 4 silver sticker strips. Any idea for what they are?

@HomeTechDIY 6 месяцев назад

My guess would be to cover the hard drive screw holes to keep bugs out since they are the largest holes on the case with internal access.

@blairharris 2 года назад

If I unplug my existing HDD and replace do I need to have software pre installed on new HDD?

@HomeTechDIY 2 года назад

No you don't and when you format the HDD, everything will be erased from it anyways.

@MaxColudro 6 лет назад

What's the RPM on the hard drive you are using? 5400 or 7200? Just wonder because I can't find a 7200rpm purple drive. Does it matter?

@HomeTechDIY 6 лет назад

I was wondering the same thing. Mine is 5400, but I wonder how it will perform if I'm recording 16 cameras at the same time. I cannot answer your question yet, but it's on my list of videos to produce.

Can a laptop hard drive be use also

@HomeTechDIY 7 месяцев назад

Yes, as long as the HD has the power and SATA connections, otherwise an adapter will be required. You might also need an case adapter if you want to security it using the screw holes in the NVR's case.

Sounds like a hard disk failure. Maybe try another hard drive or try the drive in question with your computer.

@floordoctor 5 лет назад

@@JoshKaufmanstuff - I've bought two different model versions (and years), one that had ears, & one that didn't...so it's a crapshoot I guess. I have a surplus of network mounting hardware from old switches etc...and found some that fit. Put them on after you install the HD obviously, but you'll see the hole layout when you do that. Can always drill out some old ears as well to fit rack mount screws.....just need metal/step bit.

Great in theory but I have 2 Hikvision 8 ch NVR's both of which caused the signal to the TV monitor to lose signal when I plugged them in to the HDD. They both worked in the past so any ideas as to why that's happening? I've done factory resets on them but that's an absolute joke as they keep the same camera IPs when again in theory it should be a clean slate. This is why I hate Hikvision and NVR's in general as they are absolute crap if you want to change cameras or anything in them.

@rickevans7941 2 года назад

You should have explained why Purple is better (CRM) and why you want a CRM drive for nvr/nat and also explain why not SSD (nvr can't utilize the speed plus cost. Regular hdd more storage for money) if you get a HDD that is 7200rpm CRM 6GB/s SATA you won't be able to tell much difference in performance over SSD in an NVR. Go regular but check for CRM!
