AFM-700-CC Adaptec Cache Protection BBU Flash Module

AFM-700-CC Overview

Cache memory plays a pivotal role in enhancing system speed by temporarily storing frequently accessed data. However, this data is volatile and susceptible to loss during power outages or unexpected shutdowns. To mitigate this risk, the Cache Protection Battery Backup Unit (BBU) emerges as a critical safeguard.
The BBU operates by supplying power to the cache memory during power interruptions, ensuring that data in transit from the cache to the storage device is safely preserved. It comprises high-capacity batteries and intelligent circuitry, seamlessly integrating with the storage infrastructure. The BBU continually monitors power levels, initiating a seamless transition to battery power when needed.
