    getting interrupts in BI, can it be because of variable stream when no movement is there?

    Test do not guess ! take the camera down and use a short (1-6ft) premade store purchase cable and connect the camera directly to the POE switch. Connect the BI computer directly to the POE switch. TEST.

    URGENT: HDD pinging at 100% constantly. Help please!

    It looks good. Just leave it as it is. Reformatting the drive is not necessary. If it is working do not fix it. Reformatting, Changing the cluster size, will improve the performance a little bit. It will reduce disk wear a little.

    Help with Hardware Options

    8 GB of memory does not cut it in my opinion. You will need to add memory to the I5 system. Also plan on adding a good harddrive to the system, at least a 4TB WD Purple. (~$95).
