Key Features for 64MB
BBWC
 (Battery-Backed
Write Cache) Enabler
The 64MB BBWC Enabler is a transportable 64MB battery module increasing the total memory of
the controller to 128MB for RAID, read cache, and BBWC. The transportability of the battery
memory module protects the write cache data from unexpected power loss, system board failure,
or controller board failure. Data retained in the write cache will be protected for up to 72 hours,
allowing time to restore power, or transport the module to a functioning system board or array
controller. The modular design of the battery memory module is transportable between the Smart
Array 641 and Smart Array 642 controllers.
64MB BBWC (Battery Backed Write Cache) Enabler allows the 641controllers an option to add
transportable BBWC for improved controller performance and increases the total controller
memory to 128MB.
