Using the HDD Reader (PC Only)
The HDD Reader is used to backup and playback video saved on an external hard drive (not
included). This allows you to quickly backup long segments of video, such as hours or days.
It is also useful if the DVR is damaged or removed by an intruder, and you need the video
data that is stored on the external hard drive. For details on setting up an external hard
drive with the DVR for HDD extension or mirroring, see “Configuring your External Hard
Drive for HDD Mirroring or Extension” on page 39.
It may also be used to access the footage on your DVR’s internal
hard drive when it is
connected to your computer using a 3.5" SATA external hard drive enclosure (not included)
using a USB cable (not included). This requires you to remove the hard drive from your DVR
and install it in the external hard drive enclosure.
ATTENTION - When removing the hard drive, it is VERY IMPORTANT to follow the
instructions in “Appendix F: Replacing the Hard Drive” on page 114 to avoid
damaging your DVR.

our computer using a USB cable (not
included).
