One of the most important things you can do to protect your data is to create a backup. However, once you've done that, you should also consider protecting your hardware in the event of a power surge. Right now, you can do that for a little bit less with Amazon's one-day sale on APC uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).

The UPS has a total of 10 outlets with 6 for surge protection and battery backup and another 4 that are solely for surge protection. It also has Ethernet ports and coaxial cable in and out. On the front of the case, there's also three USB ports including one Type C and two standard port.
