The 2 GB cache needs an HPE Smart Storage Battery or Hybrid Capacitor, sold separately. HPE builds type-a cards in standard and LH (low-height heatsink) versions, so match the heatsink to the chassis. Drive cables usually stay with the chassis.

For boot mirrors only, the cacheless E208i-a costs less and needs no battery. Past eight drives on one controller, the 16-lane P816i-a avoids an expander.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnect the battery or capacitor cable before first boot. One HPE 96W Smart Storage Battery serves several P-class controllers, so a server that already has one usually needs only the cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery part we sell is tested and covered by our 180-day warranty.
