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.

Drives: Most likely going with the 3 TB WD Reds. Recently there was a deal for 4TB drives (forget the brand) at $150 (same price as reds) but I passed because from what I've read the Reds work much better in a NAS environment than...
