based PC. So if users

called EXT2IFS. This appendix section will introduce how to download, install, and setup
EXT2IFS and the DVR’s HDD.

Installation of the DVR’s HDD

EXT2IFS can be found on the website:

detailed description about the driver can also be found. Plug in the DVR’s HDD to the PC,
then follow the steps below.
