Hard drive installation instructions for the 20XXP and 21XXP series CSVRs

Install or replace a failed drive in the 20XXP and 21XXP series CSVRs

CSVR units are shipped with WD Purple hard drives, SATA 6 Gb/s (WD64PURZ).

Important: Install the serial advanced technology attachment (SATA) hard drives before enrolling the device. The CSVR supports most standard SATA hard drives. SATA hard drives are user-supplied.

To use a drive with a CSVR, it must be unformatted. Hard drives with preexisting formatting or data may result in unexpected behavior during recording or software updates. If you are not familiar with the process of erasing formatting or partitioning information, we recommend purchasing a new, unformatted drive instead.

To install new hard drives

1. Verify that the device has no power and is unplugged. 2. Using a screwdriver, remove the screws on the sides and back of the chassis.
