Overview:

If you need to improve disk I/O performance for a server system, consider adding a battery-backed write cache (BBWC). Here's an illustrated look at how you can add a BBWC module to gain an easy, affordable performance boost.

Server consolidation, multimedia-heavy applications, real-time applications, and larger storage requirements can place a measurable disk I/O strain on server systems. One way to ease this burden is to add a battery-backed write cache (BBWC) module.

This walk-through scenario by IT pro Rick Vanover demonstrates how to:

  • Determine whether a BBWC module is currently installed on a controller.
  • Select the correct BBWC module.
  • Install the BBWC module.
  • View the new BBWC module in the system after installation.
