Q: I'll try again.. should the HD be WD RED (NAS) or BLUE (regular) for best lifetime?

zerobug you can use any hdd. i have tried with a 10 years old 5400rpm HDD 3.5" working well with 12v 2A power supply. A NAS drive need less power and write the data faster as a classic hdd. That means NAS drive should have a better lifetime, So if you have more than 4 cam you want to record in 1280*720p you ll probably need a NAS/red built. but a pc drive make the job perfectly. SSD or 2.5" HDD could also be use
