UPS's - Recently, one of my clients has been having power cuts, more often than I would like...
It's been a while since I've had to buy UPS's - So, I decided to check whats new and whats good.
I found the APC UPS 1000VA to be a good one, I've not ordered it yet, but will do today or
tommorow. IT comes with good software, it'll last 20 minutes on half-load and 6 minutes on full load. It'll also take the network cable, which is good as it would be terrible if a surge came through the NIC and cooked the motherboard.
The UPS will certainly never be on 'full-load', so around 15-20 mins is enough time for the server to safely shut down.
I'll let you know...
