I have been using venti at work and at home, and I have no UPSs (UPI ?). As yet (touch wood) I have only ever lost a maximum of days work, and this was due to a disk failure taking out my fossil drive which I don't bother to mirror. I have never had any data corruption or loss in my venti archive. Perhaps this is because I only write to it using fossil snapshots at 4am and not using vac - so the window when the system is vunerable is smaller. -Steve
