Indeed. You really do need a UPS. Especially for any databases -- power loss
during database operations is usually very bad for the database. Pre-UPS, I've
experienced similar issues with MySQL that backed my mail server.

Now every machine in our house (including game consoles -- PS4 gets *really*
mad when he loses power) has a UPS.

If your power supply is new-ish, you may need a true sine-wave UPS. I like
Cyberpower ones, if for no other reason than to prevent an APC monopoly :)

Best wishes,
Greg
