Thanks, I still have to get the PC, It seem that intel is usually mentioned more, is AMD out of the question for this stuff?

Here yellow dot would be for sure cameras. Blue I am not 100% sure if I would install a camera there as well. Front garage there a 90degree corner I am not sure if I would install the camera to the left or right side.

I was looking at getting the Dahua deterrence with the LED. I would install under the soffit above the garage door 1 on each corner. There is 1 street light just to the left of my drive way. I would say the street light from where 1 of the cam would be mounted Is about 26ft and to the other...

I would start with 3 cams and max out at 6 but most likely end up with only 5 cameras. Cams would be 8MP no plans for any PTZ. Would this be a good build? POE -LINKSYS LGS308P 8-Port Business Smart Gigabit PoE+ Switch - Newegg.com PC - support for H.265 1. HP ProDesk 600 G2 SFF Intel i5-6500...

That is true thanks.

Did not find anything good on my search. I guess I don’t take chances and look for a 1Gb POE switch. What is preferred managed or unmanaged For this.

I know that part, it was a double question. Would 100mb speed be good or is gigabit mandatory to get full 4k content

No idea, Was wondering. What about the speed is gigabit required for 8MP cameras. I don’t see me having more than 6.

Wow, Thanks, I would skip the lorex ordeal altogether. I saw a i5-6500 for $220 2TB but comes with Linux. It should be easy to format to windows. I’m not in a rush so I use the week to look for a deal. What you guys say should I focus on a POE+ or regular POE.

Well I mean more for evening late afternoon. Let say is 940PM and someone walk past the camera it would be nice not to automatically trigger the alarm before looking as it might be a family member. But anything past 1130pm have it automatically trigger the alarm. I think the lorex give you...

Does Blue Iris give you the option to trigger the alarm once it detect movement, So you can see who it is. Or does the alarm goes off automatically?

Yes I went over it, that where I found the link for the 8ch POE and PC. Wow, I gotta keep looking. I think I selected the i7 link and that why the higher prices I quoted. For some reason the POE switch link did not work for me. So the i5-6xxx is future proof for now right? Is that considered...

Thanks, I was hoping to keep the hardware cost down and be able to use the minix PC. But it seem that won’t do it. It seem that something good enough with a 2TB would be close to $430 plus the POE switch 8ch that another $115 plus the BI software. Easy $550+ and no cameras Now the Costco...

Thanks, So there no NVR from Dahua to support the new features yet. Would this mini PC be enough? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M24W77N/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_6mAhCb25JDBN6 If yes what else would I need? I was hoping for a NVR as I think it be easier to setup.

I would get like 4 and probably something with a wider FOV for the front door to replace the Blink. What would be a good NVR to get all the features of this cameras?

Thanks Fenderman, 107* is not bad, I have the Blink WiFi inside the home and they say they are 110* I just don’t know their vertical FOV to compare. I have one on the front porch but they lack on the verical department FOV. So you can do pretty much everything with a Dahua NVR, but the cloud...

I was looking at the previous mentioned Lorex version from Costco but I think I don’t need the 6 cameras for $800 so I was looking for a less expensive solution and found this as I found the lorex cam for about $120 but lorex make it sound you need a specific NVR for everything to work. LED...

it have the yellow, white and two more whites plus one that seem to have small green, gray wires. Do all of them need to be plug in?

thanks, wow this manufacturer need to stop over hyping their products. but that one need all those wires to work? do you know if it come with just the network version

Thanks, What a let down. Do you know if the Lorex CNV do actually record color in low light Best security cameras

If I remember I saw them at my local BJ club for less $. Night Owl Security I like that they seem to record in color in low light Is the system as a whole any good? Thanks.
