The BBU is just supposed backup any cache contents in the case of a sudden power-loss. It's just a failsafe, it's not supposed to keep your drives running or anything. It'll probally last a couple years, which is likely longer than this system will be used for.

1 charge from the battery can keep your cache data safe for ~48hrs.
