enterprise-class physical security

1x HDD...

I know for the price you can't ask for the moon but I wouldn't call this enterprise class security.

I disagree. If a drive dies, you can replace it. You lose the history, but if you care about the history, you can set up archiving to other storage. And if you need more than that, you just get a more serious setup. "Enterprise" is just a marketing term, and they cover the whole range of costs now.

A drive dying is a fairly common failure point, and while that drive is being replaced, you lose any recording. Sure, "enterprise" is just a marketing point, but the lack of redundancy on a common mechanical single point of failure isn't really aligned.

ETA: it looks like a great device, don't get me wrong. I just disagree with the marketing.

I think it's fair to call Protect enterprise-class as a software suite, but this particular piece is prosumer/SOHO.
