Which Synology NAS can handle 5 Hikvision Cameras?

Recommended Posts

I'm looking to pick up a Synology DS213j as a back up to Blue Iris and also for backing up files (pictures, media, etc.). I would be recording 4 Hikvision 3MP bullet's and 1 Hikvision Exir (all at 1080P). I was hoping to record on motion right to the NAS. I have a dedicated computer running Blue Iris and will continue to use it 24/7 but sometimes it goes down so I like the fact that the NAS adds redundancy.

 

Wondering if this NAS will be sufficient to handle recording on motion for all 5 cameras? If not, can anyone recommend a good NAS (preferably Synology) that won't break the bank?

 

Thanks for the feedback.

Perhaps the processor speed and memory will not be enough? Maybe I should spend the extra money and get the DS412+?

 

Maybe I should get the 214+? I have no idea. I would like to avoid having to buy a license for every camera as well.

 

Can someone point me in the right direction?
