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 installed every driver from the MSI website, including the 1.1 BIOS update. Pretty certain i've got intel RST and IME running in the background.
Might be worth double checking if its actually it versus generic Windows ones in Control Panel.
I agree. I don't actually think theres any defect in the drives. Im sort of suspecting some kind of activation or failure to activate some kind of power setting on the drives through the AHCI interface, but it doesn't quite work due to the RAID combined with SSDs.
Between the drives possibly...
