could be caused by power failure or other reasons and may result in
severe data loss. Therefore, we highly recommend using an SNMP or USB
UPS to protect your device and data if you don't already have one
installed."

Yes, yes, I know. And one day I will protect you oh little decade-old NAS that does very little and holds no data of consequence.
