Selection of UPS for NAS auto-shutdown via USB
I'm after a UPS to protect my NAS (Synology DS920+) - a UPS that offers auto shutdown via USB.
There appears to be a bewildering number of UPS options and I can't really see which of them offers this feature since it doesn't appear to be described explicitly.
My NAS will sit on its own UPS - I have another UPS for computer and network power provision (it doesn't offer auto shutdown via USB) - so I can probably get away with a 450-600VA UPS.
Any suggestions on which UPS might fulfil my requirement?
