but it turns out this unit makes that nose and there is no hard drive in these

Basically I was looking for something to keep my computer running long enough to safely shut it off after a power outage to ensure I didn’t corrupt any files when the hard drives were spinning

They make a noise that I can only describe as a Hard Drive Seeking noise every 5 seconds.

Which corrupted my hard drives and now I’m awaiting my SECOND warranty to even give me an answer back

When our printer started printing the lights dimmed and the unit clicked on to provide the amperage I needed for the second to keep my hard drives running

Also powered my hard drives, Mac Pro and other essentials to give me enough time to save everything and shut down safely.

I use the surge protectors for my external hard drives

I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled everything after getting this

(I'm just using mine to plug in extra external powered hard drives, so it's fine)2

I often have short power outages that last just a few seconds but enough to make my computer along with all my external hard drives to shut down unexpectedly which is really bad for them

It will run our computer, monitor, and printer, and back up hard drives for an hour if the power is interrupted

When I wrote in to tech support, they informed me that the UPS is not intended for routers, or NAS hard drives and that they would void the warranty for continued use.

Especially hard drives.

Bought this for my Mini Tower computer with two 30" monitors and a needy Graphics card and two hard drives

I also rest well knowing my hard drives are plugged into a quality surge protector.

On the Sunday before Memorial Day, we had a power outage and for some reason (don't ask me how), it ruined my boot hard disk drive so that I could not boot the computer

I thought my external Hard drive was making this noise and just doing some random

It was pretty easy to install except that I had some I/O conflicts (not the fault of the UPS unit but the OS

Works just as I
