I have a budget of $3000 to spend on equipment for 32 IP cameras and an NVR build to install in a Gas Station. I have not seen any builds with BlueIris are handling that many cameras (1.3mp) even though the limit is 64. My question is processor power. Should I build a new i7 machine or find a server (like a dell r710) with 2 or 4 Xeon CPUs? Obvious advantage would be things like psu redundancy, and raid controller, but it would probably be a used blade. Does anyone here have a setup on BlueIris that is running 32 or more cameras?
