Backup Battery Unit (BBU)
You can schedule a learning cycle for the backup battery units (BBUs). A learning cycle is when a controller
performs a battery calibration operation to determine the battery's condition. During this cycle, the system
switches to write-through mode to protect data integrity.
In write-through mode, the NAS writes data directly to HDDs/SSDs instead of writing to the RAM first. This
prevents data loss if a power outage occurs before the NAS finishes writing data.
This function is only available for models with redundant power supply units.
