Actually the cache will just hold its contents while the power is out.
When the power is restored, the RAID controller will complete the writes
to disk. If the battery does not last through the outage, the data is
lost.
Just curious: how long are the batteries supposed to last?
For the LSI-Logic MegaRaid 320-2e its about 72 hours for the standard
128MB version. Their SATA2-solution offers 32 and 72 hour-options. So I
assume its "in the order of days" for most RAID controllers.
