I’m looking for a wired, single security camera for the front of my house, and I really don’t want an app or subscription, or wi-fi, just saving footage to a hard drive which I can access via my PC.

I have a wired, app, wifi one right now which is flatly refusing to format the SD cards, so I want to avoid that nonsense, if poss. If it would just save the footage to the SD I’d keep it; right now I’m having to leave my phone at home in order to record!

Amazon has 100s, but the specs I’m looking for are buried in the masses.

Any advice would be great, thanks.

**THANK YOU for all the advice, I will have a look through the available options and suggestions and go from there. I have learned a lot between posting and this closing edit. :)
