packaging materials that are supplied to you for shipping.

hardware RAID 5 is not available without the TR 500 Key, you might need to reconfigure RAID for your
server. Refer to the MegaRAID SAS Software User Guide on the documentation DVD that comes with
your server for information about how to configure the hardware RAID.

Installing or removing the ThinkServer RAID 700 Battery

This topic provides instructions on how to install or remove the ThinkServer RAID 700 Battery (hereinafter
referred to as the TR 700 Battery).

The TR 700 Battery protects the integrity of the cached data on the ThinkServer RAID 700 Adapter by
providing backup power up to 72 hours in the case of a complete ac power failure or a brief power outage.
It has built-in functionality to charge the battery pack automatically and to communicate battery status
information (such as voltage, temperature, and current) to your server. It also provides an inexpensive
alternative to using an uninterruptible power supply, and a second level of fault tolerance when used with an
uninterruptible power supply.

The temperature of the TR 700 Battery is generally 15-20°C (59-68°F) higher than the ambient temperature
during fast charge. Therefore, to complete a recharge cycle, the ambient temperature should be lower
