Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. On my laptop, command line probes say I have 4 slots (2 used, 2 empty), yet upon unscrewing I actually have 2 slots (perhaps I have 2 hidden slots elsewhere yet not visible removing bottom panel) : sudo dmidecode | grep -A 9 'System Information' Board has only two slots for RAM, but they have to be double channel.Įven though the OP prefers to avoid unscrewing to physically inspect, I strongly suggest everyone do just that since the answer back from command line probes can be misleading. That info is shown by doing: # dmidecode -t 17Īnd, as you can see, Bank 2 is full and Bank 0 empty. Ill give an example: An old system we have kicking about has 4 DIMM slots on the motherboard, and can take a maximum of 16 GB.
I would like to point out that I have only 4 GiB of RAM in one module. Reports this: Handle 0x000A, DMI type 16, 23 bytes
