I second this recommendation and add CyberPower to the list.  We run our 
storage server (13 drives, fairly beefy) on a CyberPower CP1500AVRLCD, 
though at work we mixed some APC and Cyberpower stuff.  I have had some 
bad eggs with Eaton and TrippLite, though the latter usually makes some 
good products.
