First my general setup:
4 Dahua IP Cams (setup to be 1080p I think)
2 Dlink wifi cams (resolution is something like 600x800, very grainy)
1 POE switch hooked up to the PC
PC with I5 processor running at 80+% utilization constantly![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I have the two Dlink cams setup with no recording, they're for watching the kids playroom, and are very low resolution. The 4 dahua though are outside and use the BI motion detection to record on motion for 10 minutes at each trigger (I think).
I'd like to know if it would be less CPU utilization to just record EVERYTHING on the Dahuas, and set it to overwrite at a certain time/disk space (I think I allowed BI 300 gb of storage room). Is that even possible, or would it also require a lot of processor power? Network congestion hasn't been an issue as they're all on the same switch with gigabit ports.

Thanks in advance for any advice!!!
