connecting apc cs-650 to readynas duo
hi, after finbding my house in the dark, because of a powerdown, and also a nas down, i want to buy a apc ups. but while i am looking at the site of apc, there are a lot of cables optional for connct...
I've got a negative experience with this type. After initial complaints by its predecessor, the RS500, that the battery should be replaced, that replacement did not help. The RS 500 unit was out of warranty and a new CS 650 unit was bought.
Here too, the battery error occurred. Also draining the battery to total shutdown, as suggested by APS tech support, did only alleviate the problems for a week or two. Now the status LED in FrontView is yellow blinking again. Hovering the LED shows (translated to English) UPS1: APC Back-UPS CS 650, Battery charging: 100%, 27 minutes
The other day, early in the morning, we had an unexpected unattended shutdown. After power up, Raid Sync to fully redundant, an error message "UPS battery error. Please replace the battery." was displayed in the log. That is on a brand new unit.
It looks as if this is not the 'perfect' solution to UPS.
