HPE Smart Storage Battery 96W - backup battery, Black

The HPE 96W Smart Storage Battery (P01366-B21) is a backup power unit for HPE storage controllers. It protects data held in RAID or Smart Array cache by providing power during a system failure, allowing volatile data to be transferred to non-volatile storage. The unit includes a 145mm cable for direct internal connection within the server chassis and is compatible with a wide range of HPE ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10 servers. By providing this hardware-based power reserve, the unit helps prevent data loss during unplanned outages.

This internal component weighs 453.59g and measures 57.15mm by 241.3mm by 190.5mm, ensuring a fit in standard mounting bays for rack or tower servers. It connects directly to the storage subsystem and supports systems including the DL360, DL380, and DL580 series. Internal placement protects the unit from external environmental factors and physical handling.

• Lithium-ion (Li-ion) chemistry – provides efficient power retention and a stable discharge rate for server electronics.
• Supports up to 20 connected devices – allows a single battery to provide backup power to multiple internal storage controllers.
• Broad compatibility – fits XL450 and ML350 models, as well as various rack-mount, tower, and high-density nodes.
• Internal installation – mounts securely within the chassis to prevent accidental disconnection or physical damage.
• RAID cache support – provides the necessary current for controller cache data migration during power loss.
• Black finish – matches the standard aesthetic of internal enterprise server components.
