A Ups makes only sense on storage systems or on systems, that need to run on power loss.
Let me describe a bit more why I am thinking of it - I have a media server with 40TB of media on it. I stream from it to my HTPCs. I don't want to protect the server against longer power outage, but occasionale outages that last a few seconds. In addition, would be nice if it shuts it down properly if there is really ever an outage that would last a few minutes.
I looked a bit online and there are dozens of different models with different specs. What should I be looking for?
