Opinion on PC for Blue Iris

[crw030]

I ran with an external eSATA drive for a year, but it is not recommended. I think a significant concern would be risk of disconnect, or any number of other `performance issues.

Still fiddling with blue iris.

How do you seprate the database and the actual video recordings. I have an ssd but no room in the case for a 3.5 drive until I build a new pc or buy one. I will have to use an external drive that I have laying around to have space for the clips

You can do this in Settings -> Clips & Archiving. Select the SSD for database and other drive for video files.
