Even with a primary UPS on the *entire PostgreSQL server* does one still
need, or even still recommend, a battery-backed cache on the RAID controller
card?  [ref SCSI 320, of course]

If so, I'd be interest in knowing briefly why.

Thanks.

every server I've run PostgreSQL on has been burnt in for at least a
week of heavy testing, and they've all had SCSI drives, and if they had
RAID controllers they all had battery backed cache.
