I bought this computer to either run a home Geovision GV800 16 camera setup or run my Home MP3 juke box. The security setup with only record 2 or 3 cameras at a time max.. I will be set for motion dectection around a residence.. Mostly used for real time viewing. So, I figure I don't really need a huge Hard Drive.
My questions are:
1. could it do both mp3 jukebox and geovision?
2. If not recommend to do both how does it look for just running the geovision? Anything I need to add? Any problem areas?
3. How many PCI slots does a 16 port setup take up? I'm also getting the 450fps realtime viewing card.
Thanks for your help.. Computer specs are below.
