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.
Hi, I'm part of a small business that does pc builds. Mostly single orders, but now as we expand we are getting orders of 10-50 systems at a time. At the moment each one has windows + drivers + some settings tweaked in windows individually. It's not overly painful but an easier alternative would...
Yea I will try to make use of what I can from my existing drives, but I'm definitely going to get more. If I can get the hardware set up this weekend I think I'll get 4 more Seagates to make another RAIDZ2 of 6 drives. I can then get 4 WD30EFRX later for another vdev.

Yes, sorry I realised trying to do it with an existing windows system wouldn't be worth it so yesterday I purchased parts for another system. I've been looking at using FreeBSD, so I will try that first. At the moment I only have 6x Samsung HD204UI 2TB, 2x WD WD30EFRX 3TB and 2x Seagate...
I went ahead and bought a Chenbro CK23601 and some M1015 cards (for it and another machine), haven't set anything up yet. I'm not sure if anyone can help but I'd like my storage set up so that up to 5 people can access data without major slow downs. At the moment all my drives are JBOD and...
Thanks for the reply, I don't have a set budget but as cheap as possible would be nice. I have all the drives thankfully.
At the moment the prices for the expander are:
Aus:
HP $600
Chenbro $380
US: (+$50 shipping roughly)
HP: $341
Chenbro: $304
So I can could get the Chenbro...
Hi, I have been browsing around for a few weeks trying to come up with what to buy, but I don't really know enough to make a decision.
I would like storage for about 20 drives.
Looks like the HP SAS Expander or Chenbro CK23601 would be best, I can only get the Chenbro in Australia, but I can...
