Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

unfortunately there are no 5's in my country yet in any store's stock, and some prices (only by ordering) are between 400 E and 550 E while a VR is 250 E (same capacity, 300GB)

thanks but hmm ... i'm totally lost now
(from tomshardware) why would a Seagate Cheetah / SAS / 10.000 rpm be faster than a Seagate Cheetah / SAS / 15.000 rpm ?!
results from h2benchw say that WriteTransfer Performance on those is 75-80 MB/s (VelociRaptor @ hdtune had 104MB/s, saw here, on...

the idea with the SATA drives was 6 500 GB RE2's @ RAID 10 ... speed+mirroring
nitrobass24, what Raptors are you refering to ? Yes, the Raptor itself isn't so fast, Raptor X is faster and VelociRapter is on top of all, at least this is...
