• 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.

    New Build: Modest Home Lab

    That's a third or fourth vote for Fractal Design across people I am talking with, so I will definitely check them out. Looks like they even take 2.5" drives (though not sure how unusual that is these days). Thanks for the suggestion!

    New Build: Modest Home Lab

    My primary goal is to run the VMs to assist with my learning / professional development in my core competency area(s), but I am willing to make learning ESXi a strong secondary goal if the feedback is that there are compelling reasons to (and from what I have heard and read so far, it seems...

    New Build: Modest Home Lab

    I am using the holidays (and the holiday deals) as an excuse to build a virtualization server for a home lab for myself. I have been out of touch with the hardware world for quite awhile, and a couple people pointed me in the direction of this forum for advice. I considered posting in one of the...
