35 cameras, with potential to grow to about 50. Mostly 2K, a couple of dual 4k, a couple of 1080p. I would like about 8 x 20TB disks in a pool of some sort, presenting as a single drive to my computer. Computer is i9-12900k with 128gb ram and Intel 8 TB U.2 datacenter SSD for boot drive.

I'm looking to add some external storage to my Blue Iris setup. A couple of options I am considering: https://www.terra-master.com/us/d6-320.html https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/TB38JBKIT0/#specs Would it make sense to do software raid / Windows Storage Spaces with the disks and go with...

Thanks so much. Doing it now. The part I had missed was the right click / context menu.

I hope the screen clips help. Happy to provide any more info needed to help diagnose.

My BlueIris has not showed new clips in the program sidebar or UI3 since August 30, 2022. I saw another thread on a similar issue but didn't want to hijack. There is plenty of storage. I have cameras recording direct to disc on two hard drives. I am not recording to SSD and then...

Got it, thank you.

Great. Got that done. Now, I'm sorry, this is probably obvious, but when I go into the settings panel in BI where can I add another "new" storage location? What I'm seeing appears to allow linking "new" with a single directory.

I read on the forum here to set the "Allocation Unit Size" to 1024 when setting up the hard drive? Is this better than "default"?

Ok, maybe I didn't completely understand the architecture. I thought that the DB and recent footage gets stored to SSD (NEW), then all the recordings get stored to STORED. Can I make a NEW directory on each spinner drive? I'm fine with the idea of recording some cameras to each disk. Gerald

Good evening. I am interested in combining 2 hard drives into a logical volume. 12TB WD Purple Pro and 18 TB WD Purple Pro. (my boot drive / "new" storage is Samsung 980 Pro SSD) I am aware that there is risk of losing all data if one drive fails. However, I haven't seen a way to store on...

That could work. Are there any boxes that use the 3 hole mounting pattern of the Dahua flange plate?

What kind of boxes can be used for install in new construction? Stud walls, sheetrock. We have some of the metal boxes, they work great for surface mount. Is there a plastic nail on type box that the Dahua camera flange plate can attach too? Gerald Martin

Not sure exactly which settings you mean. If PTZ ONVIF I did not find a specific camera listed like that. I haven't found any combination yet that lets me adjust the varifocal lens from the blue iris interface. Perhaps, though, I need to look at some real PTZ cameras for a few areas that we...
