2.5 Installation of HDDs
NV-DVR3009 and NV-DVR3016 allow you to install 4 HDDs or 3 HDDs and a CD/DVD recorder. If
a recorder is not installed one of the HDDs can be installed in the swappable bay.
ATTENTION: The manufacturer advises the usage of Hitachi or Seagate HDDs.
Maximum disk capacity is 500GB each.
ATTENTION: You are not advised to use Samsung or Western Digital HDDs. Novus cannot be
held responsible for any problems incurred during the usage of HDDs that are
not recommended.
Before installation of HDDs you have to configure their work mode using jumpers. In case there is
only one disk installed in the system, it has to be configured as MASTER. In case of two or more
HDDs, one of them, connected via the same IDE data cable, has to be set in the MASTER mode, the
other in the SLAVE mode. In case of four HDDs, configuration of disks of particular type and
producer is described in the manual attached with the disk.
ATTENTION: If the disk has been used before it needs formatting. Otherwise you may
experience loss of data.
2.5.1 Installation of HDD in the Swappable Bay
Before installation make sure that the network cable is not plugged in.
Place the configured HDD in the swappable bay and fix it to the bay walls with 4 screws. Put the bay
inside the multiplexer and lock it with the key included in the set.
2.5.2 Installation of HDDs Inside the Multiplexer
ATTENTION!
Opening the multiplexer casing invalidates the warranty.
That is why the internal disk should be installed by your supplier’s servicing team.
