The cams were all from eBay. Word of caution, make sure you get the English firmware and not the Chinese. Makes setup a lot easier if you can read the screens .
Dahua uses the same firmware that the majority of the cam players out there use. You will notice in your research that the GUI and software looks identical across the brands.
It's been a solid setup for me and with 6 cams set to max settings, I get about 2 weeks on my 4 TB setup before if FIFOs. If I had to do it over, I would just get the 16 channel NVR. It self maintains (drive Maint and reboots), and I just forget about it until I need it.
