Verifying Installation; Battery Backup - HighPoint RocketRAID 432x User Manual

Hardware – Description and Installation

3 - Verifying Installation

Once the RocketRAID host adapter and hard drives have been installed into the
chassis, boot-up the system to verify that the hardware is properly recognized.
1. Power on the system. If the system detects the presence of the adapter, the
RocketRAID BIOS Utility will be displayed during bootup.
2. Press Ctrl+H to access the RocketRAID adapter's BIOS Utility.
The BIOS Utility will display information about hard disks attached to the adapter.
Make sure all attached disks are detected by this utility. If any of the hard disks are
not detected, power down the system and check the power and cable connections.

4 - Battery Backup

A battery backup option is available as an optional add-on component. The battery
provides additional data security in case of a critical system failure. Data normally lost
during a major system fault, such as a power outage or CPU failure, which was in
transit at the time of the failure (stored in the card's onboard cache), will remain viable
for up to 72 hours. The battery unit can be attached to the card using the BBU CONN.
Attach the BBU to the RocketRAID 432x, using the cable included with the BBU unit:
