I wished I hadn't bought the version I did as it is clucky and not particularly speedy. I have the DS-7608NI-K2 / 8P with a seperate POE switch and only 5 cameras and if you want to use h.265 or h.265+ it is next to useless.

I have the DS-7608NI-K2 / 8P and several 265+ cameras but playback via the 7608NI-K2 is dreadfully slow or doesn't work at all.. So I am wondering if the hardware of the 7608NI-I2/8P is better and if play back is any faster? i.e. on the K2, when playback does work.. if I try to speed it up, it...

I did via a usb stick, wouldn't work via IE, which was a pain as the NVR is in the garage and no monitor hooked up

Thanks for the speedy reply Dan. Does it have a windows client like QVR Pro, where you can check back on footage etc? Also, if I did go for the 4 channel version, can you add a 5th using my other POE switch or is it 100% limited via the software?

Hello, I currently run 4x8k HikVision cameras on my QNAP via QVR Pro and it is starting to cripple the NAS box. So I am starting to look at ta dedicated NVR or decent software I can run on a seperate PC. Any ideas please? I don't need POE in the NVR as I have a 8 port netgear switch already up...
