Installing a RAID adapter battery or flash power module
When you install any RAID adapter that comes with batteries or flash power
modules, it is sometimes necessary to install the batteries or flash power modules
in another location in the server to prevent the batteries or flash power modules
from overheating.
About this task
Depending on your server model, a battery or flash power module must be
installed remotely near the optical drive cage or the backplane. The 2.5-inch HDD
server models support up to two batteries or flash power modules.
