I want to attach a hard drive to my Bell express view 9400 PVE are. It has to have its own power supply. It needs to be 7200 RPM. I tried putting a Seagate internal drive Into a Hard drive enclosure but the receiver does not recognize it. Any help would be appreciated.
 
You are correct. Using the hard drive in the enclosure and plugging it in to the PVR the PVR said that was no external drive. The drive had being formatted for windows 10 and had some files on it. I deleted the partition and then wrote zeros over the entire drive. Put it back in the case plugged it into the receiver and it was recognized and worked perfectly. Thanks for your help.

PS The 2 TB drive gave me 600 hours of recordings.
