 Additional information from dmidecode:

    Warning: Use caution when you interpret this section. The 'dmidecode' program
    reads system data which is "intended to allow hardware to be accurately
    determined", but the intent may not be met, as there are frequent changes to
    hardware, firmware, and the "DMTF SMBIOS" standard.

   BIOS HP I38 03/05/2015
   Memory:
    16x UNKNOWN NOT AVAILABLE
    16x UNKNOWN NOT AVAILABLE 16 GB 2 rank 2133 MHz

 (End of data from sysinfo program)
Regarding the sysinfo display about the memory installed, the correct amount of
memory is 256 GB and the dmidecode description should have one line reading as:
    16x UNKNOWN NOT AVAILABLE 16 GB 2 rank 2133 MHz
