R720 BIOS "Device Settings" Hangs (alien.top)
 

Trying to upgrade the storage on my Dell Poweredge R720 using these instructions https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000116592/how-reconfigure-a-virtual-disk-or-add-additional-hard-drives and when I choose the "device settings" it hangs on the gathering configuration page, for like an hour. It's not working. Anyone experience this or have any clues on how to over come it. Thanks.

Can someone please explain to me, a casual home user, why it's dangerous to expose my NAS login page to the internet?... in c/[email protected]

For one thing, it announces to the internet that your device is there. If there is one thing you could do to make it easy on a hacker it is to tell them what and where to hack. There might not be any complete exploits today, but there will be tomorrow, and when it happens, there will be a race between you and the bad guy to either patch or exploit. Are you updating often enough to protect your device from any possible random point in time in the future? If you have nothing to lose, don't worry about it, but most people store things they feel are worth storing.
