Dell P1914S Monitor Statement of Volatility
Summary
The Statement of Volatility for Dell P1914S details volatile and non-volatile memory components. It identifies serial flash, VGA EDID EEPROM, DVI EDID EEPROM, and OSD EEPROM as non-volatile. DDR3 memory loses data when power is removed. Target users are security professionals and government agencies assessing memory volatility for data sanitization and disposal compliance.

Statement of Volatility – Dell P1914S CAUTION: A CAUTION indicates either potential damage to hardware or loss of data and tells you how to avoid the problem. The Dell P1914S contains both volatile and non-volatile (NV) components. Volatile components lose their data immediately after power is removed from the component. Non-volatile (NV) components continue to retain their data even after power is removed from the component. The following NV components are present on the P1914S system board. Table 1.

CAUTION: All other components on the system board lose data if power is removed from the system. Primary power loss (unplugging the power cord and removing the battery) destroys all user data on the memory (DDR3, 1067MHz). Secondary power loss (removing the on-board coin-cell battery) destroys system data on the system configuration and time-of-day information.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of data is stored on volatile components?
Volatile components lose their data immediately after power is removed from them.
Which memory types retain data even without power?
Non-volatile (NV) components, such as Flash U602 and EEPROMs, continue to retain their data.
What causes the loss of user data on DDR3 memory?
Primary power loss, which is defined as unplugging the power cord or removing the battery, destroys all user data.
How does secondary power loss affect system configuration data?
Secondary power loss (removing the coin-cell battery) destroys system configuration and time-of-day information.
