No thank you!
I'd rather have a fast SSD in all situations without extra software and an APC
It's simpler, faster and less expensive!
The APC provides other benefits than just backup power. It also provides clean power etc
If I had a huge concern for power outages I would have both a MLC SSD and a APC unit.
Have clean power and still don't need an APC
Thanks anyway!
I'm sorry Bullwinkle, but if you are plugged into a surge or standard outlet, your power is not clean. I am assuming you are here in the US. With our aging infrastructure and the amount of noise passed through that copper, you're not even close. Of course you're not a content creator or power user. Otherwise, you could tell how much that frequency fluctuates and passes dirty power. Even with the best Japanese PSU, its best to let the APC UPC do the grunt work while your switching power supply, VRM chips and IC's are free to pass the signals to your CPU and GPU in the fasted round trip possible. And with less work, they remain cooler too. Thus you are not leaking power in the form of heat. So why not have fast, clean and efficient?
