Processor

DELL OptiPlex 5070 SFF - Processor - 1

NOTE Global Standard Products (GSP) are a subset of Dell's relationship products that are managed for availability and synchronized transitions on a worldwide basis. They ensure the same platform is available for purchase globally. This allows customers to reduce the number of configurations managed on a worldwide basis, thereby reducing their costs. They also enable companies to implement global IT standards by locking in specific product configurations worldwide.

Device Guard (DG) and Credential Guard (CG) are the new security features that are only available on Windows 10 Enterprise today.

Device Guard is a combination of enterprise-related hardware and software security features that, when configured together, will lock a device down so that it can only run trusted applications. If it is not a trusted application, it cannot run.

Credential Guard uses virtualization-based security to isolate secrets (credentials) so that only privileged system software can access them. Unauthorized access to these secrets can lead to credential theft attacks. Credential Guard prevents these attacks by protecting NTLM password hashes and Kerberos Ticket Granting Tickets

Memory

NOTE: Memory modules should be installed in pairs of matched memory size, speed, and technology. If the memory modules are not installed in matched pairs, the computer will continue to operate, but with a slight reduction in performance. The entire memory range is available to 64-bit operating systems.

Commercial Platform Windows 10 N-2 and 5 year OS Supportability

All newly introduced 2019 and later commercial platforms (Latitude, OptiPlex, and Precision) will qualify and ship with the most current factory installed Semi-Annual Channel Windows 10 version (N) and qualify (but not ship) the previous two versions (N-1, N-2). This device platform OptiPlex 5070 will RTS with Windows 10 version v19H1 at time of launch, and this version will determine the N-2 versions that are initially qualified for this platform.

For future versions of Windows 10, Dell will continue to test the commercial platform with coming Windows 10 releases during device production and

for five years post-production, including both fall and spring releases from Microsoft.

Please reference the Dell Windows as a Service (WaaS) website for additional information on N-2 and 5 year Windows OS supportability. Website can be found at this link:

You can run the BIOS update file from Windows using a bootable USB key or you can also update the BIOS from the F12 One-Time boot menu on the system.

Most Dell systems built after 2012 have this capability and you can confirm by booting your system to the F12 One-Time Boot Menu to see if BIOS FLASH UPDATE is listed as a boot option for your system. If the option is listed, then the BIOS supports this BIOS update option.

NOTE: Only systems with BIOS Flash Update option in the F12 One-Time Boot Menu can use this function.

Updating from the One-Time Boot Menu

To update your BIOS from the F12 One-Time boot menu, you will need:

  • USB key formatted to the FAT32 file system (key does not have to be bootable)
    • BIOS executable file that you downloaded from the Dell Support website and copied to the root of the USB key
  • AC power adapter connected to the system
    • Functional system battery to flash the BIOS

Perform the following steps to execute the BIOS update flash process from the F12 menu:

CAUTION: Do not power off the system during the BIOS update process. Powering off the system could make the system fail to boot.

1 From a power off state, insert the USB key where you copied the flash into a USB port of the system.
2 Power on the system and press the F12 key to access the One-Time Boot Menu, Highlight BIOS Update using the mouse or arrow keys then press Enter.
