hard drive installation
The unit is not typically sold with a hard drive. The customer has to obtain a hard drive and install it. The manufacturer recommends using a SATA drive at least 500gb in size or larger. The illustration shows the unit with the hard drive installed.
There are four screw holes on the bottom of the unit case that should be used to secure the hard drive in place. The holes match with those on the bottom of a 3.5" SATA PC hard drive mounting receivers.

Troubleshoot
Problem: System will not detect my standard SATA 3.5" hard drive.
Solution 1: The system often ships with an underpowered AC adapter. Often, it ships with the model MT20-21120-A00F which fails to provide enough amps for the hard drive. The drive will fail to spin up so it will not be detected by the unit. 750mA is not enough. Substitute another 12v power supply of the correct connector type 2.5 x 5.5 x 9.5 mm positive tip. Recommend using a power supply around 2 amps or more.
Illustration: Model MT20-21120-A00F AC Adapter.
Solution 2: The manufacturer recommends Seagate SATA drives of 500GB or larger. It is known to work with the Western Digital WD6400AAKS drive as long as a large enough AC adapter is used. Make sure you are using a known to be functional SATA drive. The system may not detect the drive if the drive is defective. A defective drive or incompatible drive will not be detected. Another possible cause is a faulty SATA controller on the DVR, which means the DVR would need to be serviced or replaced.
Problem: No audio on system monitor. Audio not captured.
Solution 1: There is a single audio input, so only one camera with a microphone may be used, other cameras are video only. Audio is disabled by default. Open the menu:
- Menu -> Encode
There are two columns of options in this menu. At the bottom, the last row is labeled "Video/Audio". Check both boxes in the row. It is confusing that it appears there are 4 boxes and 2 are checked. Two of the boxes are not functional, they are graphic representations of a checked box. If all boxes are checked in the last row, audio will be enabled.
Secondly, on the camera view of the main display there is a speaker symbol with a red line though it. Click the symbol, in the bottom left of the camera view, to unmute the volume. It is set to mute by default.
Finally, ensure that all audio connections in back are correct. There is one RCA type mono audio in connector for the camera and one out for running to the monitor.
