@azorius (and probably unimplemented) means the bios/chipset can handle 4 slots, but the board manufacturer decided not to include 2 of the possible slots the bios can support in the physical realm that is the actual MB.

In such cases, there are command line utilities that can display memory usage information. The “free” Utility. Open up a terminal emulator and type the following.

Hi there,
I have to upgrade memory in a couple of remote (other part of the city) machines and I would like to be able to query all necessary info in a comfortable ssh session without having to drive there and unsrew each different machine (many different types). I googled a lot but I can only find Windows tools, nothing for Linux.
I need:
- total number of memory slots on the mainboard
- for each used slot: current module type, memory type, size and speed
so I can make a shopping list for all the different needed memory modules.
Example from AIDA32 (Windows tool):
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Motherboard info:
[...]
RAM slots: 3 DIMM
[...]
SPD memory info SLOT1:
[...]
module size: 256MB (1 row, 4 banks)
module type: DDR SDRAM
memory speed: PC2700 (166 MHz)
[...]
SPD memory info SLOT2:
[...]
module size: 256MB (1 row, 4 banks)
module type: DDR SDRAM
memory speed: PC2700 (166 MHz)
[...]
SPD memory info SLOT3:
<no info> (= empty)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Does something similar for Linux exist??
Best regards, Stefan.
