I've never had any problems, even the few times that power did go out. Since you're asking this question of newbies, instead of asking experts or hiring a consultant, and considering that power outages are an issue, I'd hazard a guess that you're interested in FreeBSD for a desktop or a personal server. Am I right? p.s. Backup, backup, backup. Even large multinational banks with ultra highend enterprise class filesystems on their currency exchange transaction servers make backups. And buy a UPS :-) David
