Hi all, very new to self-hosting but also very keen to start the journey. I am planning on using the server to set up a NAS for file storage and media streaming. Am also considering hosting a family Minecraft server as well. While I'm still busy figuring out what specs would suit my use cases, one thing I've noticed that might be an issue down the line is power supply. In my household, some appliances (particularly a corded vacuum we use) cause a voltage dip when plugged in and turned on. This causes the lights around the house to flicker once for a split-second.

My question is: will this damage the drives or the data stored over time? Would something like a UPS help eliminate potential issues?
