blowrabbit 0 Posted March 9, 2008 Has anyone else had success in putting a pair of seagate 500 gb drives in a ge pro or dvrme ctII ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CCTV_Suppliers 0 Posted March 10, 2008 Yes... and it works.. Just make sure you have the latest firmware that you can download from GE website... We had it working with two 750GB PATA drives and reaching to 1.5TB internal storage and no problems reported... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blowrabbit 0 Posted March 10, 2008 I was told by ge support that a drive with more than 8 mb of cache wouldn't work. But I think it had 16mb of cache. I say I think as the seagate website gave conflcting data on the specific drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CCTV_Suppliers 0 Posted March 19, 2008 We are using the Surveillance Grade drives and there are only two models avail from Seagate... one for 500GB and another one is for 750GB and as long as they are PATA drives they work perfectly. Sorry I do not have the part numbers with me at the moment.. We were told many things by Ge about this DVR that will not work, will not perform, etc.. but using these type of drives, it has been a blessing, as we easily can convert these type of boxes to 1TB or 1.5TB and they work just fine.
