2Installing or Upgrading the DVR’s HDD – F Series
Most DVR’s included in our kits already have a pre-installed internal HDD and is
ready to begin recording right out of the box. For instances in which you require a
larger capacity HDD or if your DVR did not include a pre-installed HDD, you can
follow along with these quick and easy steps that will demonstrate how to install /
upgrade the DVR’s HDD. The steps below are general and the images of the DVR
may not be identical to the DVR model you purchased, however the process should
be the same.
Installing or Upgrading
the DVR’s HDD
CAUTION: Never install or remove the HDD
while the DVR is powered on!
Remove the
screws from that hold
the DVR Casing:
You will need a Philips head
screwdriver for this step.

the screws on the back and
sides of the DVR.

Remove the DVR Casing:
Once you have removed the screws
that hold the DVR casing in place, you
are ready to remove the DVR casing
by lifting the DVR casing up from
the back of the DVR casing as shown
in the image below. Then, slide the
casing out away from the front of the
DVR. You should do this slowly to avoid
any internal damage to the DVR.
Removing the HDD
if you are upgrading to
a larger capacity HDD:
You will need a Philips head
screwdriver for this step.
If you are upgrading the pre-installed HDD to a larger capacity HDD to better fit
your security needs, you must be sure to remove the screws that are holding the
HDD in place from the bottom of the DVR.
Next, disconnect the data and
power cables which are connected
to the pre-installed HDD.

and have disconnected the data /

Installing a new HDD:
You will need a Philips head screwdriver for this step.
Connect the data and power cable to the HDD while also aligning the HDD with
the holes on the bottom of the DVR. Next, carefully secure the HDD in place by
utilizing the HDD screws that should have been included with your new HDD.
Attaching the DVR Casing:
Next, disconnect the data and power
cables which are connected to the pre-
installed HDD.
You can attach the DVR casing once
the HDD screws have been tightened
to secure the HDD in place and the
data / power cables have been connected to the HDD. To attach the DVR casing
you will slide the front of the DVR casing under the front lip of the DVR and lower
the back of the casing down into place. Then, you will re-install the screws you
removed from step one to secure the DVR casing in place.
Formatting the HDD:
Once you have installed the DVR
casing and powered the DVR; the
final step in the process is formatting
the HDD from within the DVR’s HDD
menu. First, we need to login to
access the main menu by entering

Once you have accessed the main
menu, select the device tab located
along the top of the main menu
interface. Then, select the HDD tab
which indicates if the DVR and the
HDD are communicating properly or
