I can't help you from personal knowledge. Is the R710 an older desktop replacement notebook? Some of those Samsungs were made by Mitac, and the same chassis cropped up as a pile of brands including Eclipse. Mitac sold it as a bare-bones build-it-yourself notebook, so that particular version certainly wouldn't have a whitelisting BIOS.
I can imagine having a whitelisting BIOS in a machine and not having any reference to that fact in the BIOS menus.
So, I can't help: I don't know. But I do have a QCNFA335 (the original Dell turkey), and if the form factor is correct I'm happy to pop it in an envelope: it's not what you want, but it would be flagged by a whitelist.
There's a chance your old router might have a suitable card in it as a quick whitelist test.
