### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy install to CCTV recorder
*by D***S on 26 January 2020*

I bought this to replace a failed hard drive in my Alien CCTV digital video recorder. I could see a live view on the CCTV but there were no recordings. The old hard drive was 500GB so I went for the 1TB to double the recording capacity. Installation was very easy as the position of the mounting screw holes on the underside of the hard drive matched the holes in the base of the DVR. Just two ribbon cables to plug into the hard drive and after formatting, which was automatic and took about five minutes, it was all up and running and working perfectly. CCTV fixed next day and upgraded to double recording capacity for less than £44 when an engineer call out could easily have been three times that plus the cost of the hard drive. Very happy indeed, thanks Amazon!
