Small Business Server Setup

I have not tried blue iris and I wanted opinions on the software I should use, I have heard a lot about blue iris but I don't know how good their mobile app is. Apart from that I am not sure the hardware this will use. A gpu? If yes then I will have to look for a way to put one in the r720.
They have a free trial, so id give it a shot. I haven't used their app much, but the web version and windows app works well

Id try slapping a fan on it and seeing how it goes. Otherwise go with a pfsense/untangle box, or get a premade unit for less issues and support.

Half of them pull 30w max and the rest do around 20w max. I was thinking to get a second hand one of eBay cuz good poe can get really expensive.
WIth 40 cameras, thats a lot of power. Something like a aruba s3500 can do it I think(check poe standards). But its gonna be very loud, and those are old switches now.
