Very interesting. Going to have to check this out. Thank you. :) also how many cameras are you running and at what MP total? Are you running deepstack as well? What does your cpu usage normally look like?

Do you think it's better to wait a couple of months for the prices to drop down or buy now? I won't be using the systems for another 8-10 months as my house is being built.

Don't worry about the OS. There's always other ways of getting a fresh copy. as for the different xps versions. Could you tell me how much going from a i7 8700 to a i7 9700 will effect my performance? I know the difference is 2 more physical, loss of hyperthreading and a newer generation but...

Wow that looks promising. I wonder what power supply it comes with. Definitely going to have to look into this.

I'm looking for mini tower. Anything to make fitting a gpu easier lol.

I believe they come with a 240w psu but you can swap it out for a 360w. Sadly it's an 8700, I was looking to get the ones with an i7-9700

I was honestly hoping it was going to be as easy as swaping out all the components and putting in a new psu but I had no clue the mobo would have proprietary mounts and as well as the psu not having standard connections. Didn't want to build one from scratch with the current prices and figured...

Just watched this video and it does not seem too complicated. They install a gtx 1650 low profile which sounds like it would do the job but I could not find anyone about deepstack performance when looking it up. Also the switched out the power supply for a 240w in order to install the 1650. The...

True, that's a good idea. The only reason why I was going to put it in a case in the first place because I was planning on adding in a GPU for deep stack. I figured even a compact gpu wouldn't fit in one of those OEM cases.

Good call. I did not think anything about that. Do you think it would work if I mark out the mounting points on the rack case and then drill holes into it to screw in some custom standoffs?

Background information: I am planning on making a server that is rack mountable which will run Blue Iris on a Windows Server. At first I tried literally EVERYTHING to get all the things I needed to run on one system to save on energy but I believe splitting up the servers is for the best. I had...

Thank you for the suggestion. I actually ended up going with an Aruba S2500-48P after a user mentioned it above. Seemed like a great switch for the price (just as you mentioned old enterprise switch) and I only paid $99 for it on ebay(tax included). I already found a video on YouTube that shows...

Yikes! Thanks for the heads up. I honestly forgotten about power draw of the unit itself. I'm going to do some more research on it. If anyone has any experience with a Aruba S2500-48P in terms of power draw. Do let me know. Edit: just found this info Is this worse or just about the same for...

I'm going to squeeze right into this fight here just for a quick second to to say I think I might have made up my mind about the switch. Found a used Aruba S2500-48P on ebay. I know it will be putting all my eggs in one basket but since its managed and for around $100 I honestly can't beat that...

Thank you for the explanation. Is there any difference(besides price and port count) between these two models? https://nellyssurplus.com/products/ipcampower-ipcp-16p2g-af2-16-port-poe-switch-w-2-gigabit-uplinks-for-ip-security-cameras...

Those were the ones I was reccomend. Which do you reccomend?

Thanks for the heads up. Right now the best "Server room" that I have planned is the utility room with the furnace and water heater(I know, probably the worst place possible). It's fairly big so I will probably ask them to put in a wall or enclosure around part of the room to house the...

Before someone mentions it YES I have read the wiki on this topic but I have some additional questions. I've tried asking this question on multiple forums(including LTT) but I have not received an answer so I'm hoping someone could help me out here. I have a "server" that has already been built...

Currently we just got the entire layout of the house drawn and the civil engineers have placed the house on the land and gave us a survey of it. Next up is the loan and getting the plans looked at by the municipal for all the permits and stuff. I was already planning on doing Cat6a to each...

Thank you everyone. I'm going to read everything you've written and the wiki as well and come up with a plan of action. It's difficult to assume the viewing distances needed since the house isn't built yet and we only have plans so far but I'm going to come up with some ideas and reply back. I'm...

I decided on the Ankee C800 after watching The Hook Up's video on comparing cameras. I will definitly read the wiki when I get home. I already purchased 4 C800's a while back but I guess I can use those as indoor cameras and find better outdoor ones. Are there any specific ones you would...

You honestly made me laugh out loud. I really can't believe I forgot about that lol. Luckily though the user above reccomended a 16 port with an unlink as well. Thank you. This is exactly the type of switch I was looking for. I know I should plan for purchasing an additional switch but right...

So I'm designing a cctv system for my new house. It will be prewired with Cat-6a and consist of 16 PoE cameras mostly Ankee C800 4k cameras and a small amount of 1080p cameras that I have yet to choose. The entire system will be running on blue Iris with home assistant for notification and such...
