I'm looking at this:

http://www.lowvoltagedirect.com/nvr-c-77_89/nvr30432ep-32ch-4sata-poe-nvr-p-2400.html

The total "incoming" bit rate is 320Mbps; that should be more than sufficient for recording 12 channels at 4K. Also, this NVR supports H265, I can reduce the bitrate each camera needs for recording by almost half.

And 32ch is not a waste of money, I need at least 16 with 2/3 additional for expansion.

Look at the specs...

The specs you pointed out reflect "Decoding" capability, not Encoding.

at 30fps, but 8 4K at 15fps should be possible as well

 

No that’s not how it works

But still you would of maxed out and that’s only 8 channels what about your 4 x 4mp

Can you explain why this is not the case?...and where in the specs do you this limitation?

Univew, not doing very well in China, also not active player in US too. I will suggest you go with Dahua or Hikvision

Send me message, if you need more information.

What does "not doing well" even mean?

at 30fps, but 8 4K at 15fps should be possible as well

12 4K

4 2K

Correction on NVR, the model # is NVR30432EP

Hello,

I could not find any info on this NVR, I mean, literally not a single search result from Google:

UNIVIEW Model# VRN30432EP

Looking at these 4Ks and 1080 cams as well for residential (large home) installation

4K UNIVIEW Model#IPC3238SR3-DVPZ

4Mp UNIVIEW Model# IPC3614SR3-DPF28M

Is Uniview considered good quality in this industry?

If we max out storage at 12Tb on the FLIR DNR7166, how much video can that store assuming 16ch at 4K/8mp? 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month?

 

Coming on the forum has just saved you over $1.200

As the other option will not run all 8mp cameras

Thank you, exactly what I needed

What do you mean "flir"?

And yes, public spaces and hallways, basement too.

And the cameras must have IR for night vision.

 

One of your nvr option you listed is a flir unit

What feature of FLIR addresses the requirements?

A friend of mine is superintendent for a small, 2-floor apartment building (35 units). He's been tasked with hiring a local security company to install security cameras to record all public spaces in the building. Overall, the system requires 16 4K cameras, night vision, record on motion, and NVR with capability to identify human and non-human motion (trees, cars, etc). He got some proposals from local firms but he's not sure if the equipment detailed in the proposals are suitable for the building needs. He's not very computer-literate so I'm posting this on his behalf; based on these cameras and NVR, which ones are the best given the above requirements, and which ones should he avoid?
