Rack mount UPS... suggestions please!

[MDLarson]

OK, here's sort of what we have now, and APC's suggestions.

Eventually we're going to replace the silly Compaq with an XServe (hopefully) or some similar rackmount server. The primary and only purpose for this Compaq at the moment is running FileMaker Server.

I'm basically looking for a rack-mount battery backup system for the devices listed in the link (48 port switch, NAS drive, and server). The $400 cost was a little unexpected. I was hoping to find something for under $200!

These are very good units and well worth the cost. You should not go for dollars when looking at protection, less dollars will equate to less protection, bad warranties, and shorter life.

Go for one of these and be assured your stuff will be well taken care of by both the units and APC support.

Cool, thanks for the advice!
