We have a cobra security camera system that does not have enough storage space. We tried using a usb to add more space and that did not seem to work so wondering if this would work where it’s a hard drive? null

I do not know the Cobra Surveillance system, so I do not know if you can install it as a working hard drive. However, I do have a Sannce Surveillance system and I back-up my 2TB DVR weekly using this device with no problem. All I do is insert the device USB cable into the DVR and go through the steps that my surveillance system requires to perform a back-up and it is done. I allow my surveillance system to overwrite once it is full because I am backing up weekly, so it doesn't matter to me if it overwrites recordings from a long time ago. I am sure using it as a backup device covers what you need, correct?

Hi, Please be informed that the WD Easystore drive is a plug and play device tested and designed for Windows and Mac computers for seamless operation. This is an external drive which works using a USB cable to connect to the USB port. We recommend you to contact your security system manufacturer to know about the compatibility.
