Dell U2717D - Statement of Volatility
Summary
Statement of volatility for the Dell U2717D monitor documenting all volatile and non-volatile memory components on the system board. Lists the M24128-BWMN6TP EEPROM (128kbit, storing DP EDID and HDCP data), M24C02RM EEPROM (2Kbit for HDMI EDID), W25Q16DV Serial Flash ROM (16Mbit firmware storage), and W9751G6KB DDR2 SDRAM (512Mbit for video data). All NV components are hardware write-protected with no user-accessible external data paths.

Statement of Volatility – Dell U2717D CAUTION: A CAUTION indicates either potential damage to hardware or loss of data and tells you how to avoid the problem. The Dell U2717D 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 U2717D 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, 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 data components are volatile and lose information immediately after power removal?
Volatile memory, such as DDR2 U801/U802, loses its data stream and firmware if power is removed.
What is affected by a secondary power loss (removing the coin-cell battery)?
Secondary power loss destroys system configuration data and time-of-day information.
Are all components on the system board non-volatile and retain data?
No. While certain NV components exist, primary power loss destroys user data on memory (DDR3).
