Which CPU do i need

[BigChris]

I test Zoneminder myself on my productive ubuntu system, and i am very excited.

Now i want to setup a little server with low power cosumption, and i wondering what a CPU / System i need. At the moment,i want to setup about 3 IP-Cams, with resolution 480x360. I want to do motiondetect 24/7. In the future i think, there will be about max. 6 Cameras.

Is an Intel Atom N2800 (Cedarview, 1,86Ghz, 6,5W TDP) enough for this projekt? Or what do i need for my home surveilliance? I plan no other services on this machine.


Thank you for your help.

I have ZM running in Cubox and Guruplug Server plus (ARM based devices with 3 ipcams without problems). The Cubox (www.solid-run.com) eats 3W, Guruplug is about 12W.

Sounds great!
I bought a Guruplug this days and hope i receive it shortly.
I think i need some assistance then.
