    32ch Dahua NVR recommendation

    I don't know much about Dahua NVRs, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'd like to spend sub $500. I need a 32ch, 2+ satas, and I'm all set PoE wise, but depending on the price, it might be nice to have a few in case one of my injectors fail. Rack mount would be ideal. A...

    Camera recommendations

    I'm looking into dramatically improving my home surveillance from a couple of webcam wielding Raspberry Pi's. I'd like to start out with 5 cameras with a budget of about $120 per camera. I'l like one with 2.8mm focal length/minimum 90° viewing angle, the rest 3.6mm/70°+. I'm quite partial to...
