® About the Intel RAID Smart Battery ® ® Intel RAID Controllers and Intel Integrated Server RAID Modules provide reliability, high performance, and fault-tolerant disk subsystem management. A complete fault-tolerant strategy requires protection for all data, including the unwritten cached data in the RAM cache. If power is lost, the data in RAM is lost. To avoid this data loss, a battery can be added to supply power to the RAID RAM during an AC power outage or if the AC power cord is rem

Important Pre-installation Considerations Warning: Always ground yourself and/or use a ground strap before touching the RAID controller or the RSBBU. Perform all installation work at an ESD-safe workstation. Use an ESD-safe Phillips screwdriver set to a maximum torque of 2.25 inch pounds, and be sure the screwdriver is centered in the screw to avoid damaging the screw head. If you exceed the maximum torque specification, you may damage the board, connectors, or screws, and you will void t

Monitoring Battery Backup Multiple utilities are available to display and configure BBU information including recharge count. When you replace a BBU, you should reset this counter to zero. Intel recommends that you replace the BBU once per year or after 500 recharge cycles, whichever comes first. Note: This chapter describes only the BBU-related features of the Intel utility programs. For ® complete information on these utilities, see the Intel RAID Software User’s Guide. Monitoring
