Last week i waited 12 hours while the raid utility conditioned my battery. Today i received a red light warning message:'Battery failed (code 0x#0 = 18)'and then write cache was disabled due to insufficient charge. My Raid utility seems to disable write cache to insufficient charge all too regulrly. How often does this normally happen? How long should a Raid card battery last?The raid card is less than one year old and i am surrprised at how many times ive had reports of insufficient battery charge in the raid.I'd love to hear other peoples experiences ether with similar battery life or whether your battery is operating charged without these problems?Should i get the battery replaced?CheersRaid Card For Mac Pro
RAID Utility application on a computer with a Mac Pro RAID Card or Xserve RAID Card. With a Mac Pro RAID Card or Xserve RAID Card installed in your computer, you can use RAID Utility to turn your computer’s internal disks into storage volumes based on RAID (redundant array of independent disks) schemes that improve performance. Underneath the pretty aluminium box, Apple's RAID Card batteries are just bog-standard lithium polymer cells with some control gear. When they fail after a year or two in service you can bet the £££ you'll fork out to replace it that the cell isn't dead, but instead has got itself into a stuck state where the RAID card is confused about what to do with it.
