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.

It might be anything from 10-12 simultaneously. I need to dedicate atleast 4GB ram to two of the VMs. Which leaves me with about 24GB for the rest of them.
It will be a complete test lab with AD, SQL, SCCM, Remote Desktop Services, Citrx Xen App, Citrix Xen Desktop, App-V +++ With different...
I want to build an ESXi lab that I can use for general testing and labbing, nothing else. The computer will sit under my TV in the living room, while I will be sitting in another room, and connect to the different VMs with Remote Desktop (they will all mostly run Windows (Win7, Server 2008 R2...
