I think the link is a good one and a very valid route. For me, I have risked old and factory refurb hard drives and only had one that lasted well. It's a good start to get the system up and running and as I have said, a good how to article. It's a little different in a laptop where I would never risk a used drive as failure is a major pain. Not so with a cctv system. Provided you keep a check on it the chances of failure at a critical time are low. As long as you keep an eye on it. That thing is writing 24/7
