dddddddddddddd

I have a server that I would like to reuse.  However, the original OS was found to have viruses, malware, etc.  The server was a complete mess and has been verified as a system that was attacked by hackers.

I want to reuse the server and not through it in the garbage.  Therefore, I would like to WIPE the BIOS and all FIRMWARE and replace it using known good media.  I don't want to simply load a new OS on this hardware until I take the steps to verify that the BIOS and Firmware of the server is clean.

The Server is a Dell PowerEdge R720.

Can you please let me know the procedure to reload all of the firmware and BIOS?  I need to know where to get the FIRMWARE and BIOS and what the procedure is to delete it and load the new trusted BIOS and firmware.

Maybe like an SUU DVD can help?
