11.2 Changing the Hard Drive
Hard drives are sensitive mechanical devices that may be damaged by shock or vibration.
Always protect them from shock and vibration when transporting and do not move them
within 30 seconds of being powered up.
Remove power from the M-series DVR before removing the hard drive. Wait for 30
seconds for the drive to stop spinning before moving the DVR or removing the hard
drive. Moving a drive that is still spinning can damage it.
