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 would never dump any existential files on this storage, without having a backup on an offline backup...
Yeah, thats another question, my storage is filled for 85% and i have everything backed up on 2 TB HDs. As i...
So finally i had the time to take some pics:
Both Arrays in Controller-Manager:
Physical View of the Raid-Controller:

I am using them in a raid array but not with an LSI-controller.
I am using 8 of them in a raid5 since ~ 1/2 year + 2 as single drives and no problems so far.
So i bought another 16 for a second raid 5 which is actually on init.
They all came with about 2 years waranty.
So, finaly my last 3TB-Drives arrived.
I will post some pics ans stats of my Storage.
After raid init 8x3TB Raid 5 + 16x3TB Raid 5 it means a total space of 60TB usable for my Win2008R2-Server in one case.
I wonder how long it will take to create the 16x3TB raid since the first array took ~18...
I took some pics from the Backplane, sorry for the bad quality, im not a professional^^
As u see there are a bunch of capacitors and resistors as well as 4 ICs saying "4953GM/540044" (google says, this are mosfets) and one IC "51CNYKK/7407" (Google: TTL hex buffers/drivers)

I already searched for the manual, but the vendors website doesnt even list the chassis...

Right, it doesnt have SFF8087 connectors, it has SFF8470.
Maybe,
there are 12 pcs of this cables, 2 for each backplane "etage" (which itself holds 4 drives).
But where to connect? i have a HP expander, but no pins for this cables ^^
Hello there,
