Two CAS# latencies are supported by SPD - 5 and 4. The first value (CL X = 5) corresponds to DDR2-800 (2.5 ns cycle time, 400 MHz) with 5-5-5-18 timings (exact values). The second CAS latency value (CL X-1 = 4) corresponds to non-standard DDR2-540 (3.7 ns cycle time, 270.3 MHz) with integer timings (4-4-4-12). But you will hardly want to reduce memory frequency that much to use hardcore timings.

SPD revision and checksum are specified correctly. Manufacturer's ID Code is also available. But there is no Serial Number. And the part number of the module corresponds to what's printed on the modules.
