February 25, 201511 yr So, I have an old APC UPS. It's a bit crap. It uses 35W doing nothing. I also have a newer Cyberpower ValueUPS which runs just as long, doesn't make a fizzing noise, and uses a whole 2W when doing nothing. Is unRAID going to support Cyberpower UPS in the future? It works OK with Synology and Asustor UPS units, so there's obviously linux support there somewhere.

I'm using a Cyberpower UPS with unRAID, and it didn't even require any additional configuration on my part. It might depend on the model.
February 25, 201511 yr Community Expert I also have a couple of CyberPower UPS's and they work 'out-of-the-box' with no special action needed to get them working.
February 25, 201511 yr Community Expert Cyperpower has used the same USB command structure and interface in its product line for a number of years and apcupsd works just fine. You won't break your system by trying to use it. Either it is recognized and usually works (I have not heard of one that didn't work if recognized) or it is not recognized.
