Well, that is a very cool command. But, the dmidecode project web site
states that the program does not probe but only reports information that
the BIOS provides. My BIOS is not helpful for what I need. The command
"dmidecode -t 17" reports information for device type 17, which is
memory. My output reports "Speed: Unknown" :^|
But, half my question was whether or not both memory sockets were
populated. It reports that the second bank is empty. That is good news
since I don't have to remove RAM to install more RAM.
The speed issue is important in my case because the dual channel support
will only be possible if both sockets are populated with the same
capacity and speed memory modules. I want to buy a module that matches
the one already installed. The manufacturer specs show two possible
speeds for this model. I guess I'll have to open it up to physically
inspect for the speed.
Thanks for listening.
