    I have a desktop drive that I added to the BI computer. I understand that constant writing will end up shortening the life of the drive, but how long should I expect it to last? Is there any real difference between the constant writing to the New folder and how BI moves files to the Stored...

I recently found out that the Lorex would recognize a IPC-B5442E-ZE just plugging it straight in since they both are made by Dahua (thanks for the tip @wittaj). So, is the reverse true? Can...
