Anyone recommend a good UPS?

OKay So here is my question, is there a big difference?

Big difference between what?

Aren't these just batteries with a USB or network shutdown?

I guess you could say that, they certainly have more "intelligence & integration" than that

It sure isnt silent, but sadly more quiet than my server. Time to start looking for a enclosed rack or bigger place. When it is on battery or charging, it make a racket. My APC Smart-UPS 2200 makes less noise but is a tower version.
