Notes
: Due to OS limitations, some operating systems may not show more than
4 GB of memory.
Due to memory allocation to system devices, the amount of memory that remains
available for operational use will be reduced when 4 GB of RAM is used. The reduc-
tion in memory availability is disproportional. See chart below.
