    Hi! 

    I have posted about this before, but I did not get an answer and I have found some more information. 

    I have a Huananzhi x79 8D motherboard with 8x8GB of DDR3 ECC memory and 2 x Xeon E5 2670 CPU:s. 

     

    The unraid dashboard lists my RAM to be 32GB (instead of 64GB). The system information as well: 

    Model: Custom
    M/B: HUANANZHI X79-8D Version VAA31 - s/n: MB-201903272019
    BIOS: American Megatrends Inc. Version 4.6.5. Dated: 03/28/2019
    CPU: Intel® Xeon® CPU E5-2670 0 @ 2.60GHz
    HVM: Enabled
    IOMMU: Enabled
    Cache: 512 KiB, 2048 KiB, 20480 KiB, 512 KiB, 2048 KiB, 20480 KiB
    Memory: 32 GiB DDR3 Multi-bit ECC (max. installable capacity 192 GiB)
    Network: bond0: fault-tolerance (active-backup), mtu 1500
     eth0: 1000 Mbps, full duplex, mtu 1500
     eth1: interface down
    Kernel: Linux 4.19.88-Unraid x86_64
    OpenSSL: 1.1.1d
    Uptime: 

    The "free" command gives me 64GB of RAM: 

                  total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
    Mem:       65966588    19896080     4611780      696308    41458728    44772192
    Swap:             0           0           0

     

    lshw -short

    Also shows 8 sticks of 8GB RAM:

    Hi there,

     

    I've passed this along to the devs to take a look.  I'm guessing that this is only an appearance issue and that nothing functionally is broken (e.g. you can still assign more than 32GB of RAM to VMs and whatnot).  Please confirm.
