Re: Help me select hardware: dome cameras; POE switch; monitoring software; storage s Thank you. I'm doing research and will post back but one thing that's unclear to me is what do I use to record to the hard drives: computer or some kind of "server?" Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

Yea. I'm thinking of trying that first, honestly. I have the DCS-5222Ls.
