It's an NVRAM module with a battery so in the event power is lost to the system, it retains what is stored on it, unlike DRAM and SRAM, which are volatile and lose the data when power is lost.

I have just recieved my new servers they are IQ9000i and the first one I opened has a Mirco Memory MM-5425/512 in it (A link to an ebay seller selling the same model (I think)) what does it do as I have no idea and would like to know.
