I am interested in getting a Dahua Wizmind NVR. I am looking at the DHI-NVR5216-16P-I or DHI-NVR5216-16P-I/L.

My question - what is the difference between the "I Series" and the "I/L Series"?

I can see a few differences with the spec sheets, such as the number of face pictures processed per second, number of total face images, etc). All of these differences seem to be the result of a bigger processor, not necessarily newer technology. The "I" series is EOL, but not the "I/L" series. Is this simply the next generation of the same product? or is there something else that sets these two apart?
