Thoughts on security camera setup quotes

I’m looking to get a professionally installed POE camera system to replace my Arlos. I had 2 separate local companies out to the home to give quotes. These are for exterior cameras on a residential home. The property is a single family home on 3acres.

I know next to nothing about this tech so please let me know your thoughts as to quality and the price.

Contractor #1

$3,250.00

  • 6x Speco 08FT1 8mp turret style camera w. 2.8m lens
  • 1x Speco 4k NVR. 6TB HD
  • Cat5e wire

Contractor #2 – Gave 3 setups with different cameras – All include ethernet wire and drops also.

$5,488

  • 6x Hikvision 4MP ColorVu fixed turret network camera
  • 1x Hikvision M Series 8K NVR 14TB

$6,807

  • 6x IC Realtime 4MP Full-color LED AI Eyeball Network Camera
  • 1x IC Realtime 8 Ch 4k AI AVS, Analog, & IP Mini 1U Standalone DVR 10TB

$5,988

  • 6x Turning 5MP HD TruColor Fix Eyeball Network Camera
  • 1x Turning TR-MRP082T-B NVR 8k 10GB

As you can see there’s a pretty big price difference in the quotes from Contractor 1 and 2. I’m not sure if #1 setup is underpowered or #2 is just overkill.
