New Build for Blue Iris System

[Dutty54]

I am putting together a system for home security and will be using the Blue Iris platform. I put together a BOM for everything I think I will need to perform the install. I was hoping some knowledgeable people would look it over to see if I am making any mistakes with hardware or I could run into any potential compatibility issues with Blue Iris. See below:

The computer components are to upgrade my current PC, and I'm going to pull out the existing stuff and build a standalone PC to run the system.
Any thoughts?

Arguably the 4TB SSD is over-sized for the OS, though it could also be used for video snaps storage, and is undersized for primary video storage, depending on how much history you want to retain.
Maybe add a large HDD for the video storage, after working out the aggregate bitrate and the needed history.

You need to choose different cameras, those will give beyond sub-par performance. You're welcome to try them, but most of us would wager money that we will see a complaint post from you later on about their video quality at night, and you will end up buying new ones.

You will also want to used a platter drive for storage and not an SSD.

+1^^^.
A 8MP/4K camera with a 1/2.7" sensor will provide terrible performance if there ANY movement under reduced lighting conditions. See the ideal sensor size for MP image at bottom. IOW, a 4K/8MP camera should have a 1/1.2" sensor.

Also, put Windows, Blue Iris and BI's "DB" folder only on the SSD, perform a clean install using the MS Windows Media Creation Tool on a USB stick.
Put video clips on a spinning HDD that is surveillance-rated such as a WD Purple.

Insure CAT cable is solid, not stranded, copper, not CCA /Copper Clad Aluminum and that the jacket is rated for the application: use CMP ("Riser") for use in walls, ceilings, attics, crawl spaces, between floors.

The Reolink video doorbell is a good choice, IMO....I've had 2 close to 2 years now with no issues, streaming to Blue Iris.
