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.

after researching more about the available options at my disposal i've finally made up my mind: i'm gonna go with ubuntu and flexraid.
i've ordered the case for starters and the rest of the hardware is chosen except for 2 things: these controllers are not available in my country:

i've decided to go with fedora for the server and windows 7 for the htpc (which is already running).
I'm gonna need a sata adapter to add sata ports when i decide to increase the number of hdd. Given that this will be software raid 6 do you have recommendations?

i will be building a software raid 6 server for streaming video through the network in the next month or so, but even though i've been building systems for a long time i've never really paid much attention to raid.
