Im looking to get some UPS power supplies for our small server farm. We have 2 servers with dual cpus, both with at least 5 hot swappable drives. What should i be looking for in terms of a UPS power supply?
 
Need a few more questions answered before someone here can make an assumption to what you'd need...

Growth: Is this a small shop and are those two servers all you'll see in the forseeable future?

Rack or Tower style UPS? If you have a rack already, floor space is saved and it looks much cleaner running cables down a rack than having them bunched up on the floor.

In my shop I have 3 of these for my critical servers. http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=SU2200RMXLNET

mine are black though to match my rack.

Once you've answered those questions, poke around here... http://www.apc.com/products/family/index.cfm?id=164

Also, can't hurt to use the APC UPS Selector to help find out how powerful of a UPS you need. http://www.apc.com/template/size/apc/index.cfm
