Do you have experience with this exact scenario? You can kill power to your windows pc 100 times per day and restart and there wont be any data corruption. Dont believe me? setup a test machine and do just that.
Not sure how an NVR is easier to restart than a pc. When power comes back on it boots. End of story.
Just to get some input on this, if the PC let's say running Win10, shuts down unexpectedly as in power loss, wouldn't the OS go through some disk/file checks before booting? And, (I am not fully versed with/in Win10) in that event, it could probably delay unless a user prompt is waiting for input...
I had a Win7 htpc for media for a while and accidental hard shutdowns (i.e. hold power button - kids) or power loss had caused some issues before and one point system crash with"ntldr" or etc., missing messages. Had to reformat OS drive and reinstall. Of course, it was a known brand reliable SSD with NTFS. It doesn't make sense, I know. But it happened. I ran OE diagnostics later and disk is fine.
So IMO, (maybe, I am ill informed), this is a valid concern. Granted any hardware failure would obviously be a show stopper but in terms of power loss and accidental shutdowns, how resilient is Win10?
Have you guys experienced such issues?
