DVR'S
Digital and VCR recording solutions are currently available. Digital storage systems offer superior performance and the most cost-effective solution. Digital storage devices facilitate quick, easy and reliable retrieval of recorded images. VCRs, while previously the technology of choice, may exhibit disadvantages including equipment maintenance costs, videotape changing, inefficient event retrieval and poor image quality. Digital storage devices can remedy these problems at prices that are lower than the total life cycle cost of VCRs. There are 2 main types of DVR systems, Stand-alone systems and PC-Based systems.
