    My IPC-HFW5231E-Z5 Died, need replacement model

    How would you waterproof the ethernet connection? Since I am going up there on ladder want to make sure I do it right. It was during a real bad rain storm so I suspect water must have gotten in through the box, which I siliconed.

    where are you guys finding i7-6700 Dells under 500?

    If I purchase one with an AMD graphics card, can I simply remove it and use intel integrated graphics so BI can take advantage of it?

    SD Recording question

    Thanks for your input. I will probably want 24/7 recording. If I can get a few days out of it, I will be happy. It would be in the rare instance that something happens and my BI box was unable to record it.
