Battery-Backed Write Cache Enabler Option 
The Battery-Backed Write Cache Enabler, along with the battery module, 
provides transportable data protection, increases overall controller performance, 
and maintains any cached data for up to 72 hours. The NiMH batteries in the 
battery module are continuously recharged through a trickle-charging process 
whenever the system power is on. Under normal operating conditions, the battery 
module lasts for 3 years before replacement is necessary. 
  CAUTION:  To prevent damage to the equipment or server 
malfunction, do not add or remove the battery module while an array 
capacity expansion, RAID level migration, or stripe size migration is in 
progress. 
IMPORTANT:  The battery module may have a low charge when 
installed. In this case, a POST error message is displayed when the 
server is powered up, indicating that the battery module is temporarily 
disabled. No action is necessary on your part. The internal circuitry 
automatically recharges the batteries and enables the battery module. 
This process may take up to 4 hours. During this time, the array 
controller will function properly, but without the performance advantage 
of the battery module.  
NOTE:  The data protection and the time limit also apply if a power 
outage occurs. When power is restored to the system, an initialization 
process writes the preserved data to the hard drives. 
To install the Battery-Backed Write Cache Enabler: 
1.  Power down the server ("Powering Down the Server" on page 
2.  Extend the server from the rack, if applicable ("Extending the Server from 
the Rack" on page 
3.  Remove the access panel ("Removing the Access Panel" on page 
4.  Align the battery module over the quarter-turn fasteners.
