Hello everyone.
I am currently putting together my PC/NVR build and am looking for some suggestions, advice, critique, or anything in between. The PC/NVR build is as follows:
Dell T3620
6700k Processor
32gb Ram
(1)240gb M.2 PCI Express 3.0 x4 for the OS
(2) Seagate Skyhawk 8tb HDDs for the storage of the video
Win10 Pro
Blue Iris software
The Camera setup is:
(4) 5MP Iqeye cameras @ 10f/ps
(6) 3MP Iqeye cameras @ 15f/ps
(2) 1080p Iqeye cameras @ 25f/ps
All are MPEG-4 streams
I want to archive (7) days @ 24hrs per day of video from each camera
My few questions are:
- Can I span the two Skyhawk drives into one 16tb drive and still reap the benefits of the surveillance properties of the HDDs?
- Is Blue Iris my best (economical) choice for recording software?
- Is there any changes I should make based on my setup?
Thanks,
Jimmie
