I'm not sure what the hell is going on around here, but the last couple weeks I've been getting hit with a couple of short, sudden power glitches a week. The power suddenly goes off, then comes right back on. Every time it happens my server reboots, which is getting really annoying.
I've figured out 2 things from this:
1. I need a UPS, because this is f'n irritating.
2. PC Power & Cooling must be doing something better than Enermax.
My main rig's got a PCP&C 510W PSU, and despite drawing a lot more power (dual Opteron 246s + 7900GTX vs. single A64 3200+ & a cheap 6600) hasn't gone down from one of these glitches yet. The server box with a 535W Enermax goes down every time though.
I think maybe I'll go UPS shopping later.
