RE: RAID Cache Battery Source

This should be covered under your hardware maintenance agreement. IBM
will replace the battery free of charge.

Subject: RAID Cache Battery Source

Hello,



On our 520 we just started getting a RAID Cache Battery warning stating
we
have 79 days before failure. The system has a 5709 RAID card and the
battery part number is 42R5070. Anybody have any sources on where I can
obtain the battery? Via a couple of sources I've not had any luck in
finding one. I'd like to replace the battery on a weekend. Worse case
I
shut the system down (after flushing cache of course) and pull the old
one
out and cross reference it to something else.



Thanks
