ReadyNAS RN 204 and UPS
Hi I have recently purchased a RN 204 and looking to ad a UPS. Quite frankly I find all the information rather confusing .... probably says more about me than the info! All I want is a UPS to protect ...

I have two CyberPower units: CP1350AVRLCD and CP1500AVRLCD. Both work with ReadyNAS. I use the 1500 to protect the RN202 and a nearby PC (the Nas is set up to do a graceful shutdown, I never bothered to do that with the PC).

Hi mdgm, thank you. Sorry for my ignorance, but if there is monitoring via a USB doesn't that require some software on the USB, and hence must be compatible? Regards Stephen

It does need to be compatible with NUT (Network UPS Tools) which we run on the NAS.
As for sharing the UPS over the network with a Windows PC whilst this article is written for an older product this works similarly: http://home.bott.ca/webserver/?p=466
