Hi,
I'm new to this but very keen to learn and set up a home monitoring set-up with IP cameras.
My question is this - with IP cameras do you need surveillance software running on your PC 24/7 or can you get the camera to write directly to a NAS drive, which I have in a remote location along with the modem/router.
I'm thinking that if someone breaks in and steals or disables the PC it would be good to have the camera still capturing video.
I have just got my hands on a hikvision ds-2cd2432f-iw indoor camera (whick looks great so far)
Thanks
Nick
