9.7Cache Settings
DVAS Series disk array has a write cache memory, which is normally enabled. The cache memory holds data being written to disk, enabling the controller to confirm that a command is complete before data is physically written. A battery backup protects cached data for up to three days in the event of a power failure during an unfinished write operation. The DVAS Series disk array controller automatically completes any unfinished write operations once power has been restored, provided the cached data is available.
