i already have an apc surge protector... is this enough? i think i'm a pretty average pc user... i have data that i don't want to lose but i have an external hard drive to back it up on... will my hardware see any significant damage due to a blackout? do i really need a ups?

Thanks for the help Navid. I think I'll either get the ES 350 or 500VA model.... The 350 gives about 2 minutes of battery backup and the 500 gives about 10 minutes... Do you think 2 minutes is enough time to power down everything so my computer is nice and safe?
Do you think the ES line of APC is sufficient? I don't care how long my computer is running for after a power outage... I just don't want it to screw up my computer.
