“Are these good for security camera systems?”

• Depending on your data bandwidth it should be fine. in general, using SSD is better for live capture of video since it's faster, and HDD is better for long term storage if that footage. But if the amount of data your cameras generate is low enough for the HDD to handle then it's just fine.
