So I'll be running the wires for my cameras soon and and trying to figure out the best place to install the NVR. I am leaning toward a bedroom closet maybe mounting on the inside wall above the door. What do people typically do to secure their NVR from intruders?
I also use SD cards in the cams as second storage. I mounted mine hidden into my 19" rack. You'll have to demount a lot of stuff to get to it. Hopefully won't have any issues with it
I got all internal PoE ports attached with patch cables going to the front, also USB extension and HDMI cable. So I don't have to get to it.
I'm using the mainstream, but only on events, not 24/7. Maybe I'll also get a second NVR. I just ordered another NVR for a colleague and will test the cluster functionality then.
