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.

I purchased a SE3016 16-drive SAS Extender off of ebay and the LSI 8888ELP controller that came with it does not support 3TB drives. I was wondering what is the least expensive way to go for simple RAID support. This is going to be used as a media server in my house. I was thinking of the...
