"02/0480" errors were reported from SSDs indicating a failure of Power
Back inside the SSDs.
High
This phenomenon occurred on both SDT2A-S and SDT5A-S with both
SSD micro-program Rev. 00-00-48 and 00-00-4F.
The SSD micro-program is modified to improve the diagnosis method of
the Power Backup (Super CAP).
