Hello folks,
I am just about to get started in home surveillance. I have done quite a bit of internet research, but I have have no hands-on experience yet. I know I want to go with IP 1080P cameras, but I haven't decided if I want to use an NVR or a dedicated computer or just have all my cameras upload to a cloud server. I'm leaning towards a dedicated computer and Blue Iris software. Is that the best course for a beginner? If I get a computer, what would be the minimum requirements for a reliable adequate computer system for 6 - 8 1080P POE cameras?
Thanks for your time,
David
