Dell U2417H - Statement of Volatility
Summary
The Dell U2417H is an UltraSharp monitor with both volatile and non-volatile memory components. This statement of volatility documents non-volatile components including EEPROM for DP EDID and HDCP data, EEPROM for HDMI EDID, serial flash ROM for firmware, and DDR2 SDRAM for video data stream. It details data retention characteristics and remedial actions required to prevent data loss. Target users include security professionals, government agencies, and organizations requiring volatility assessment for data security compliance.

Statement of Volatility – Dell U2417H CAUTION: A CAUTION indicates either potential damage to hardware or loss of data and tells you how to avoid the problem. The Dell U2417H 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 Dell U2417H system board. Table 1.

code.
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, 1067 MHz). 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 types of memory are in the Dell U2417H?
The system contains non-volatile components (EEPROMs and Serial Flash ROM) and volatile memory (DDR2 SDRAM).
What happens if power is lost?
Volatile components lose data immediately, while non-volatile components retain data.
How do I prevent data loss from power loss?
Ensure primary power is not lost (unplugging the cord) and keep the coin-cell battery installed.
