Of course, it is always recommended to use BBU, but what are the main benefits of installing BBU into the system, the system has redundant power supply and is connected to UPS? Does it depend on the type of system (database, file, terminal)?
What are the realistic failure scenarios that can be prevented by BBU?
Thanks in advance!

You can be sure of the possibilities of these in your environment. I have seen each of them in production scenarios, so they are all possible 🙂 p>
Today, I roughly measured the benefits of enabling write-back on the RAID controller on the server at work. It does not have a RAID battery backup unit (BBU), so it is currently disabled Write cache. Since the server is not used to capacity (so far), most of the test results are spectacular, for example:

The RAID backup battery can protect you from:
