buying ups

wolfric · 2010-03-17 01:23:01

Quick question: looking for cheap ups. Only need 1 computer + monitor. only need about 3 mins max. I need it to be able to hibernate though instead of shutdown not sure if that's standard.

Any takers? This need to be moved to Servers? :P

AFAIK Hibernate still needs juice to be flowing to the plug, albeit in minute quantities. Also bear in mind that certain PSUs (especially Enermax!) have issues with mid-to-high-end domestic UPS units (i.e. they make them explode! )
