T20 BIOS Updates and Suspend-to-RAM?

Afaik Dell removed support for Suspend-to-RAM in BIOS version A06 and therefore my T20 are still on A05. With recent security issues I would like to upgrade but saving energy and therefore suspend to RAM is very important to me. Can someone please comment on whether A15 supports Suspend-to-RAM? I am also wondering why Dell removed Suspend-to-RAM feature.

Thanks, Joachim

Hello

I show that system power state/C-state S3 was disabled with BIOS version A06. I show that a security fix for S3 was part of the A07 update. It appears that only A06 had S3 disabled.

Thanks

Hi Daniel,

is this from documentation only (I can imagine a security fix to be done without really re-enabling the functionality, in fact sometimes a security fix implies disabling functionality) or can you really confirm S3 works on a system with A15 installed (the current version)?

Thanks, Joachim
