Awesome 4k cameras! But I should've paid more and got the newest Reolink NVR model
PROS:
This was a great deal! I paired this NVR with a couple of RLC811a cameras and it is fantastic! I'll be adding more Reolink camera's in the future. The 4k picture is clear especially during the day. Nigh time, is okay.
CONS:
Unfortunately, I learned too late that my refurbished NVR unit is model # RLN8-410-E (H3MB16).
Why does this matter? Well, H3MB16 is Reolink's oldest model. Which means that if you want to upgrade the hard drive, you'll only be able to replace the internal HD to 4tb max, which isn't that bad, since you'll be able to add an external HD (4tb max) via the esata port for total of 8tb. The newer models will let you upgrade to larger hard drivers (12tb max).
Also, you'll be stuck with their old GUI, since model H3MB16 can't be upgraded to the newest firmware. The old GUI doesn't support "person and vehicle detection". This is a huge deal...I setup email notification and was getting non stop emails for every motion detection. It got so bad I had to turn it off email notification. At night, the spotlight turns on every time a car passes my drive way.
FINAL VERDICT:
Great buy, I'm very satisfied with their system and camera video quality. But I'll have to eventually bite the bullet and upgrade to a newer model Reolink NVR...
