Adding USB to Pioneer DVR-630H?
 
Good morning everybody.
Is it possible to add a USB socket to a PIONEER DVR-630?
Or how can I transfer records to a USB flash drive?
Is there a wiring diagram of the PIONEER DVR-630H available?
Best regards. Rudy.

It has a hard drive inside, If you mean replacing the hard drive with a flash drive and putting the USB connector outside for easy access than the answer depends on how the firmware treats the HDD, If it is NTSF storage then you might be able to do a hardware swap using SATA to USB adapter and a USB extension, If it uses proprietary protocols and some sort of encryption then you are out of luck. In any case hacks like this require some technical skills in computer and electronics.

It's going to be some sort of custom hard drive format, it's not formattet in a way that windows/macos will read out of hand.

Isobuster should be able to red and give you the video from the hard drive if you remove it from the recorder and you have some way of plugging it into a computer (you can get cheap IDE (it's old enough to be IDE, not SATA) to USB adapters on amazon, ebay or wherever else that sells computer stuff).

Whether these will work fine if you were to replace the hard drive with some sort of setup with a SD or other flash card I don't know.
