Dell OptiPlex 7060 Tower - Statement of Volatility
Summary
Statement of volatility for the Dell OptiPlex 7060 Tower desktop (dated April 2, 2018), documenting all volatile and non-volatile memory components on the system board. Non-volatile items include embedded controller Flash (SMSC SCH5555V-NU, 2KB ROM + 256 bytes RAM), USB Type-C port controller Flash (Cypress CYPD4125-40LQXIT, 128KB + 8KB SRAM), 32MB System BIOS U8 with ePSA diagnostics, 24KB TPM Nuvoton NPCT750JAAYX (U48), and 256-byte SPD EEPROM per DIMM. DDR4 memory supports 4GB to 64GB via fou

Subject: Statement of Volatility – Dell Opti Plex 7060_Tower
To whom it may concern:
The Dell Opti Plex 7060_Tower contains both “volatile” and “non-volatile” (NV) components. Volatile components lose their data immediately upon removal of power from the component. Non-volatile components continue to retain their data even after the power has been removed from the component. The following volatile and NV components are present on the Dell Opti Plex 7060_Tower motherboard:

Frequently Asked Questions
Which data types are volatile and lose information immediately when power is lost?
Components like System Memory (DDR4 DIMM) and the RTC CMOS BATTERY are flagged as volatile.
What action is needed to prevent data loss from system memory?
The system must be powered off completely, or use a non-volatile state like S4 (suspend to disk).
Can I access stored configuration or time-of-day information if only the coin cell battery is removed?
Removing just the secondary power source (coin cell) will destroy system data on the system configuration and time-of-day information.
What are the different states (ACPI states) available for the Dell OptiPlex 7060_Tower?
The supported ACPI states include S0 (working state), S1 (low wake-up latency sleep), S3 (suspend to RAM), S4 (hibernate), and S5 (soft off).
