The Svat system has been working great and the helpline person was great in solving one of our tech questions. The unit was fairly easy to set up and use. One thing I would have liked through, would be a faster search mode in playback. Steven from California

Record up to 2 Years of Video Footage
The 500GB hard drive can hold up to 2 years of continuous video (at lowest quality setting) and is optimized for 24/7 surveillance. We only use hard drives that are specifically designed for high capacity writing, which ensures long product life and accurate video data storage. Your DVR will alert you when your memory space is full so that you can overwrite your old video, stop the unit from recording, or backup and transfer your video footage.

The CV501-16CH-007 utilizes H.264 compression at the latest and most advanced compression level available for a DVR system. You will see an amazing picture but save almost 50% on storage space versus DVRs with MPEG-4 compression! H.264 maximizes your hard drive space.1
