My first deal. Bonus offer at JB Hi HiFi. Buy the HD wifi camera and get the NVR/NAS for free. This model NVR is a few years old but seems to have good reviews for ease & function providing you understand a bit of networking. If you install two HDDs then one can be used as an NVR and the second as a NAS. Make sure you keep the firmware updated on this. Cheers

I have no experience with it, but am aware there's a script called fun_plug which activates a full linux server. Mentioned at http://www.dlink.cc/others/how-to-hack-the-d-link-dns-323-to…
The 322 doesn't seem to be listed as supported for fun_plug
It's not a Nas, only nvr. But can be configured to have one hdd as storage and the other for recording. But software is probably limited.
Yeah probably better off getting the HP proliant and run freenas
for a 'NAS' it's absolutely no good. read the amazon reviews
Yeah already did that lol dlink doesnt have a good rep for this stuff.
If you've got the HDDs & OS ready-to-go then you can build an Xpenology NAS within about 20-30 minutes including screwing the HDDs into the PC and the initial Volume setup etc. You don't need a Proliant, you can use almost any PC so if physical size is an issue simply track down a nice, 2nd-hand, i5-based mini PC with enough HDD bays to suit your needs and go for it. I've been building NAS boxes this way for years and they work a treat… a mirrored HDD pair of 4s or 8s in a Small Form Factor HP PC (usually ex-Govt Z210). Small, discreet, quiet, low energy consumption and absolutely 'set & forget' bulletproof! Brilliant for PLEX too as you've got a 'proper' CPU to do all the decoding instead of a cut-down NAS specific CPU.
My first deal.
Congrats, you never forget your first time.
charging double delivery for both items and the camera selling around ~$160 somewhere, the NVR (not include HDD) has not too bad review..from JB warrranty. buy or not?
this is ozbargain. buy obvs.
Does anyone know if you can add non-Dlink branded cameras to DNR-322L 2-Bay NVR/NAS - such as the xaomi fang that we all have been buying?
found this posting - Does DNR-322L support other brands' IP camera?
http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=52693.0
yes it is possible
The official word from D-Link is that the DNR-322L only supports compatible D-Link series network cameras, and D-Link recommends against integrating network cameras from third party manufacturers.
D-Link did point me to a business class device called the DNR-326, which does support a certain network cameras from third party manufacturers
Is that Nas any good? Am in the market for something cheap and don't really want to build one in a Hp etc due to size and time requirements
