Samsung offers DVR and NVR models without HDDs to counter HDD shortage

Thu, 05 Apr 2012 08:00:00 GMT

The news that HDDs from Hitachi, Seagate and Western Digital have been successfully tested follows the announcement in January that Samsung had reacted positively to the worldwide shortage of HDDs by introducing models which would be supplied without HDDs.
