Running the latest script with -nr flags. I get the following output error

$ sudo dmidecode -t memory | grep "[Ss]ize" Size: 8192 MB Size: No Module Installed Size: 16384 MB Size: No Module Installed

Huge thanks for this script btw, it's an essential!

Thank you.

$ sudo dmidecode -t memory | grep "[Ss]ize"
 Size: 8192 MB
 Size: No Module Installed
 Size: 16384 MB
 Size: No Module Installed

Since DSM 7.2 was released, different Synology models' output different information for dmidecode -t memory. I don't know why, and it's not the actual dmidecode binary that's different. I just ran the DS1621xs+ dmidecode binary on a DS720+ with an empty memory slot and it didn't return "No Module Installed" for the empty slot.

# /volume1/scripts/dmidecode_1621xs -t memory | grep "[Ss]ize"
 Size: 2048 MB

I've disabled the warning for non-numeric values - as the script skips them anyway, and will show an error if the total memory size is non-numeric.

I also noticed the script didn't show the current max memory setting.

I've fixed both issues in https://github.com/007revad/Synology_HDD_db/releases/tag/v3.0.56 or you can run v3.0.55 again and let it update itself to 3.0.56
