Okay. im pretty much set on getting a UPS supply. Unfornatley, i dont know the capacity of my powersupply without moving the server. But just going on the specs of the machine: Intel P4 XEON 2.4, 1 gig ram, 7 SCSI hot swappable drives what kind of power should i be looknig for in a UPS system if i want at least 10 mins of back up time. Depending on the price, i might just get two, one for each server.
 
You're not going to want any less than 800VA for all that to run 10 minutes. 800VA probably won't run that long in fact if you're using the system, so you'll want more than that. Expect to pay $120+ for a decent 800VA UPS, and more for higher.
