I want to purchase dvr recording unit for cctv camera what specification I select to get good performance?
For 16 cameras having video and audio recording for about 15 days recording capasity
For 16 cameras to record high definition (HD) for 15 days non-stop (24h) is not very practical for home – unless you are a company and can afford a CCTV system with multiple harddrives.
For budget CCTV, you need to use some other ways to record:
If you use motion detection, once there is a movement, it starts to record, then it would be better.
Or buy one with a secluded recording system, every few seconds it takes one picture and save it to a harddrive.
Once you are sure about function, go to ebay, the same function are normally at the same price range.
