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.

my Hitachi runs slightly hotter then my seagates, they are all 4TB 7200 also. I am waiting on Toshiba but all these external drives make me want to jump on them bad.:(
I am the same. Also the idea about having two drives fail, if your running a 2 drive array vs 1 single drive. If that single drive fail, so your still ass out, how is it different with two?:confused:
