One other thing to watch out for, Eliot, is hard disk space. At Clanfield we took the decision to have a dedicated PC per camera and each PC has either a 1TB or 2TB drive. This isn’t strictly necessary if you regularly check your captures and delete false clips – spiders and storms in particular can cause hundreds of false clips per night and if you aren’t careful, you could quickly start running out of space. We also copy our data to an archive drive so that at the end of each year we can delete the oldest records (but still have access to them)
