Hey guys
I run blue irisi on a PC thats in my bedroom
I also have a 6RU switch cabinet in the garage containing which is mounted high on the garage wall and locked with key. Power is behind the cabinet so it cannot be accessed without taking off the switch cabinet which will take considerable time and effort
My original idea and it was working was to store all NEW footage and stored footage to the NAS for the main purpose of being physically secure. If we were to ever get a break in. They would have a very hard time take off the switch cabinet with my NAS inside it.
The way I see it a burglar wouldnt want to waste his time bashing a switch cabinet let alone not even knowing whats in there. I think they would steam my PC more likely as its just in the study under the desk
After some blue-iris tweaking. Someone told me I shouldnt be putting NEW footage over the nework and should be storing it locally on my Blue-Iris PC. But then if I got a break in I am pretty confident theyd take the computer
I dont really have anywhere more secure to put it right now. Its a small form factor PC but still a too bulky and it wont fit at all in the switch cabinet.
What is your opinion? I mean it was working over the NAS without me noticing performance downgrade so I might change it back there untill I find another location for the NVR PC
