UPS Modified vs Pure

[Psyonus]

So in my saga to get a server up and running I just dropepd 2k on a ups and some 8tb drives. I have come home and set things up to find 2 pieces of info that....disturb me. 1. I have no clue how to make unRAID see my ups and be friends with it.... and 2. The ups is a modified sinewave 2000w unit...... I heard that pure sine wave was the the cat's milk, anyone care to weigh on this??

 

 

Cheers fellas ur help is really appreciated.

Pure sine is useful for sensitive equipment. Things in the audio and medical fields usually benefit greatly. For general use modified or simulated will be fine.

Can't help you with unraid, though.

If what your powering with the ups takes ac and converts to dc (example, a psu) it is fine. If what your using runs on a/c, such as something with an a/c motor or some tv's then you need pure sine. psu's smooth out the modified sine output of the ups's inverter
