KEY FEATURES:

Function: Battery Backup Unit (BBU) for SAS MegaRAID RAID controllers — provides temporary power to controller cache in a power loss event to prevent data loss and preserve in‑flight writes.

Compatible Controllers: Works with a range of LSI MegaRAID cards such as SAS 8880EM2, 9260, 9261, 9280, and 9750 series (and similar platforms that accept the BBU007 interface).

Battery Type: Lithium‑ion “intelligent” battery designed for enterprise RAID controller cache power‑holding.

Battery Voltage: Approx. ~3.7 V (typical for BBU007 units).

Usage: Mounted on the RAID controller’s BBU connector/interface or connected via a cable where supported.

PERFORMANCE:

Backup Function: Supplies enough energy to allow the RAID controller to flush volatile cache contents to disks safely on mains failure.

Backup Duration: Extended backup time depends on controller, cache size, and load — typically tens of seconds to minutes enough to preserve writes during outages.

ENVIRONMENTAL & RELIABILITY:

Designed For: Enterprise RAID environments where abrupt power loss could corrupt RAID cache contents.

Certifications: RoHS / environmentally compliant (varies by source listing).

PHYSICAL:

Form Factor: Small battery module with controller‑specific connector or interface board.

Installation: Plugs onto supported RAID controller boards or attaches via provided harness.

Typical Use Case: Paired with MegaRAID SAS controllers in servers/storage arrays to protect cached data.
