Could you point me in the direction of a better 8 or 9 channel DVR? About this one: As far as I can tell, it's the FDS-H from 4nsys.com in case that helps Do I need more than 13FPS per channel at D1? This is just for a house, not commercial anything. I don't want to need 6TB of storage just to store a month of video. I was most definitely not planning on buying a hdd from apexcctv. I'll just grab a 2tb on newegg for $80 and put it in myself. I think there was a good samsung one for that price. HDMI out would definitely be nice, but is it worth another $400? Overall, I would love to find another one for a reasonable price, if you can help me out. I'm simply lost trying to find a decent one, judging by the results I keep getting on google. Any help would be appreciated.

Anyone have experience with this? Seems like a good price for a good dvr.

I've been searching for cameras for a new house being built, and I came across the Monoprice line of IR bullet cameras. They seem great for the price, but I was wondering if anyone has any advice. Also, is it better to mount cameras to an outlet box such as you mount a ceiling light to, or can I just make room in the stucco and screw them directly into the side of the house? What about the soffits; how could I mount them into there? These cameras don't seem to be able to mount into a outlet box.
