Check out BI5....gaps in the recordings where all cams stopped recording. The blank segments are about 10 seconds with about 10 second between intervals. That was yesterday afternoon. Today, all is fine.

Looking for where BI can send me an alert when the weirdness happens...where are the alerts setup for system failures?

I wonder if you might just need to leave a little more space free in case Blue Iris is having trouble getting old clips deleted in time for new clips to record. I'd try it with an extra 100 GB unallocated to see if that makes a difference. I leave about 150GB free on my continuous recording box which writes nearly 1 TB per day.

It is a little odd disabling the top folder as that is the default location for recordings to go, and it is also where exports done through UI3 will get saved (this isn't configurable so you might have broken it by allocating nothing to that folder).
