Any problems with APC Backup UPS ?

Does Netgear have nay problem interfacing with the USB connection on backup APC UPS ?

In other words, I want the uninterrupted power supply to be able to communicate and turn off the readynas in the event of a power outage.

Please let me know what you think?

Thanks.

  • I have the APC Back-UPS 550G-UK and this works fine with my Readynas Duo v2 it communicates fine with the Nas via the usb interface and will shutdown when the battery depletes to a set %.
  • using the same model as Herbieo, & it's saved me a few times and shut my other Readynas's down when the outage was long enough to trigger the critical threshold I'd set.
