What i finally want for mine is like a 4 camera system including a PTZ dome all recorded in the same quality 24/7. would need a big hard drive though!!
one at the front one at the back here, and the same at the other place
so i'll need to buy 2 sets of recording stuff as sd cards are probably going to work out a bit more expensive
on the plus side, i can put the card into the conputer and it plays everything just fine
