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.

Where the journey is headed..
ZFS is the best storage you can have locally on your machine, both in terms of data security and features like hybrid pools, RAID functions, encryption, and much more. It is a mature technology, and very little—like "AnyRaid"—is missing to make it a "perfectly...
napp-it cs and Object Storage
A file server or NAS primarily offers hierarchical local storage using file systems like ext4, NTFS, or ZFS. These are used to store the operating system and local data. Access to this data is efficient, whether locally or via multi-user NFS/SMB file sharing—even...
