I've been thinking about just imaging the Unifi video box hard drive to an SSD and then putting that back in place, hoping the SSD would help improve performance and longevity enough to make it more reliable. I have thought about setting it up as a virtual instance inside a more general purpose "home server", but currently I don't have anything but laptops/chromebooks at home and kind of what to keep it that way. :-) Thanks for the pointers. I haven't had the Unifi system for a year yet, so I must be running the more reliable software. I did do an install of the Unifi software on a Ubuntu virtual machine for initial testing, and I agree that it was super easy. So I assume that if you are installing these systems, that you are more or less happy with them? I was optimistic about it, like the cameras and the promise of the controller software, but wish it was more reliable. Have you seen the thing where it stops recording in the middle of motion?
