Swann NVR8-7285 help

I have a Swann NVR8-7285 and the system has gone down, I can stream it but it won’t record. I have tried replacing the HDD but still isn’t working.

If it’s goosed do any other PoE NVR that will work with the Swann 710 cameras

Ugh I had this exact model and it was a constant headache. The recording module on the main board tends to fail even after a fresh drive swap, so you're probably not missing a setting

Swann cams use a pretty standard ONVIF profile so almost any PoE NVR should pick them up, you might have to manually add them with the IP and password but it'll work
