An old D-Link product that I used to run a lot of things on my [[Home Lab]], an early home NAS that was hackable to run a few other things.

I dragged it out for the [[Z-Space Electronics Bazaar]], but didn't get rid of it because I needed to hook it up and see what was on the drives / wipe the drives. It has two 2TB drives, setup as mirrored RAID1.

Got it on the Z-Space network and it popped right up, and used my old-forever-password for the admin luckily!

I guess i went pretty deep into this before, putting some custom boot loaders with [fun_plug](http://dns323.kood.org/howto:fun_plug) that I vaguely remember. The backup files have dates around [[2011]] - [[2012]] - [[2013]].

Also, looks like I was using "bare" SMTP user/pass for my old gmail account, which might be the vector for how that account was hacked.
