[SpecsTacular]

I am planning to create a NVR server that uses yoosee 8 to 16 channel camera. What is the recommended specs and peripherals that i should have besides the camera itself?

It depends on how many cameras you want attached to it and at what resolution and recording quality. Other factors are required uptime, cost, and space/power requirements.

1080p

You are going to need some pretty heavy duty equipment to run that kind of a setup, if you take a look at systems rated for that kind of load, they aren't cheap.  This article is a good read: https://www.vueville.com/blog/how-we-built-our-diy-home-security-camera-system/

 

You will likely want a server with quite a few hard drive bays if you want to keep footage for any amount of time. That 1080P video will eat through space extremely quickly at high bitrates/ framerates. Have you thought about software yet? An appliance may be a better choice.
