Nice to meet you, *****!
A set of 4-channel DVR/NVR can allow you to have 4 individual security cameras connected to the system. This means you can record maximum 4 cameras.
6 channels mean you can expand the system in the future.

Ok how do I expand the system to play all 6 channels

Please go to"Multi" to select the channels you want to show.

If you bought a Zosi DVR system without a hard drive, it doesn't support the external hard drive, so you need to buy a professional surveillance internal hard drive to install.
It is not recommended that you purchase a desktop hard drive. A surveillance hard drive or security camera hard drive is more durable, advanced, and reliable than a desktop hard drive in a lot of ways.
Here a list of surveillance HDD manufacturers:
Toshiba_ (S_300)
Seagate_(SkyHawk)
Western Digital_(Purple)

ok thanks

I'd recommend you buy Western Digital Purple 1TB or 2TB hard drive.
You're welcome!
Is there anything else I can do for you today?
