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.
