There is a current thread for a Large UPS Recommendation. I think I need a small-ish one. My FreeNAS is on an HP Microserver and for reasons I don't fully recall I have three others running Smoothwall, media server and Windows with a mailserver on respectively with a router etc.
Because Freenas mostly backs up copies of everything else I it hasn't been mission critical but a safety net and I've never ventured into UPS land but increasingly feel I ought, no so much for the data but to prevent OS system corruption and hassle from that needing rebuilding etc.
Should I accept that risk of hassle do you think? If not I know I can google UPS but prefer a personally recommended sensible FreeNAS related guide, (that maybe supports FreeNAS and the other machines merely to get them to shut down gracefully.)
Hope I am not shown to be too stupid so far...
