The Dell Opti Plex 7070 Small Form Factor 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 7070 Small Form Factor motherboard:

Frequently Asked Questions

How is system data retained when power is removed?

Non-volatile (NV) components retain data after power loss, while volatile components lose it immediately.

What happens to the memory and data in 'hibernate' mode (S4)?

In S4 ('suspend to disk'), the OS writes system context to non-volatile storage. The dynamic RAM is not maintained.

Can I remove the battery without losing all system data?

Removing the on board coin cell battery (secondary power loss) will destroy system configuration and time-of-day information.

What constitutes a 'complete boot' when restoring from S5 state?

Since S5 is the shut off state, coming out of it requires power on, which clears all registers and demands a complete boot.
