Not knowing if / how much you're willing to spend, take a look at a
Synology NAS, which has Surveillance Station. You get one camera license
with each one and then you have to buy additional camera licenses for
about $55 each.
Of course you'd be getting a lot more than just a surveillance DVR, so
may or may not fit your needs. They are great devices.
Good luck,
James
