APPENDIX

Appendix B

Flash-based Backup Module (ARC-1883-

BAT/CAP)

B-1 Overview

The ARC-1883-BAT/CAP kit includes the Flash-based module (FBM),

and one cable. The FBM features NAND flash memory and super

capacitor technology that provides cache offload capability to

pro-

tect cached data in case of system power loss. The ARC-1883-CAP

(Flash+Supercap) module is mounted super-capacitor pack that

provides power for

the backup of your data. The ARC-1883-BAT

(Flash+LiOn Battery) module is mounted battery pack that pro-

vides power for the backup of your data. When the module detects

loss of power,

the super capacitor keeps parts of the ARC-8088

RAID controller

active long enough to allow cache data to be copied

to the flash

memory. The module attaches directly to the 12 Gb/s

SAS RAID

controller by the cable.
