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.

    Your home ESX server lab hardware specs?

    Been looking at those Supermicro 6026TT's. How loud are they? Planning on using one to consolidating two hosts that I have for my esxi home lab. Multi node seems to be an easy way to bring additional hosts online when I need more resources.

    LSI 9260-4i - PC Pitstop SAS adaper - Chenbro UEK-CK23601

    This combo seems is driving me crazy. Set everything up for my Norco 4224 to be an SAS expander, but none of it wants to communicate correctly.

    My odd VM build.

    In theory, my build was going to be very straight forward and consisted of the following: Storage - iSCSI/FC target using Openfiler 2.99 in a Norco 4224 with an LSI 9260-4i and LSI 7204EP fiber channel card. Five Hitachi 3TB and 12 WD 1TB's ESXI-01 host - HP Z600 with two E5540 2.53GHz...
