So I am trying to think up a decent rack mount case that will only be used for monitoring IP camera's. Here is my initial thoughts but I am still working the build any thoughts suggestions would be awesome.
Processor:
Intel Core i5-750 Lynnfield 2.66GHz LGA 1156 95W Quad-Core Processor BX80605I5750
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115215
Motherboard:
GIGABYTE GA-H55M-S2V LGA 1156 Intel H55 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128457
Case:
iStarUSA D-300-PFS Black Steel 3U Rackmount Server Case 2 External 5.25" Drive Bays
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811165083
Ram:
G.SKILL Value Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model F3-10600CL9D-8GBNT
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231422
Power Supply
COOLMAX CU-600B 600W ATX 12V v2.2 Modular and Compatible with Core i3/i5/i7 Power Supply

Hard Drive (Thinking about going with two of these so some recording is possible.)
Western Digital Caviar Blue WD10EALS 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136534
Heat Sink
Thermaltake Silent 1156 CLP0552 92mm CPU Cooler For Intel Socket LGA1156
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835106139
Internal CD/DVD Drive
ASUS DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS Black SATA 24X DVD Burner - Bulk - OEM
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135204
So basically I am trying to build this as cheap as possible but at the same time be able to be rack mounted and run 4 live streams from IP cameras. No actual recordings will be kept for more than 2 days. I am thinking the 1 TB drive would hold as long as old data is being overwritten but I am not sure as this is my first IP camera build. Any thoughts, suggestions, way to save money, etc. Please post em.
