I'm enjoying my FreeNAS system. It runs very well and I want to keep it that way so that my data is safe.
I'm now looking into getting a UPS to work with my system. I'm not looking for something that will run my system for any period of time. All I want is to gracefully shut down the system so I don't have any problems. If the shut down happens immediately after loosing power or a few minutes later doesn't matter to me as if I loose power my need to access the server is gone.
Thank you,

- Will I be making a mistake by going with a small UPS such as a APC Back-UPS BE550G or equivalent? Top priority is safety of data but keeping costs down is important. I have flexibility in budget if a spending more makes sense.
- Will I be able to have my system (see signature) power back on once power is restored?
- Any recommendations on unit or VA size for my setup? Keeping a cable modem, router and Obihai powered up would be nice in addition to the FreeNAS server.
Thank you,
