    M.2 SDD

    I'm being pulled, kicking and screaming all the way, to migrate from Win7/64 to Win10/64 on my BI machine. As part of that process I plan on a new SSD drive to replace the current platter drive. I'm looking at the Samsung EVO 970 Plus. The motherboard supports M.2 drives so that isn't a...

    GBF 960 series

    I've been looking for a doorbell, and potential gate operator, for our driveway gate. My basic wants/needs are PoE, ONVIF, non-cloud based, actually weather proof/resistant and all at a reasonable price. The current crop of doorbell systems are WiFi and all seem to require multiple firmware...

    PoE "oooppppssss"

    OK, I admit I should have known better and made a really dumb mistake, but i was in a rush while working on my system yesterday and accidentally used a crossover cable (see what happens when you assume all your cables are straight though?) instead of a straight-through on a PoE camera. The...

    Hi from the Great Nanny State

    I'm in southern NJ, farm country not refinery country. I've been running Blue Iris for about four years and recently found this forum. I've learned more in two weeks than I learned in those four years. I am sort of a maverick because I run other programs on my BI server, folding@home to be...
