Fortunately I read about Google's server and their cheap per server
UPS approach and never went for the single high power UPS except when
absolutely needed. It was easier to deal with dead UPS in places where
there are more than one server simply by plugging the machine into the
other UPS while the first was replaced.

Otherwise, the single large UPS becomes the single point of failure.
