How to Check CPU, RAM, and Storage



To identify CPU type, RAM memory size, and amount of GB of storage your Chromebook has, use the system menu. 
  • Open a new browser window on your Chromebook
  • In the address bar, type in, chrome://system
  • For RAM look under, memory_spd_info, click expand button, look under, size_mb
  • For Storage Capacity look under, storage_info, click expand button, look under, User Capacity
  • For Processor type, look under, cpuinfo
If you cannot find storage info using the above, try this:
  1. Use Ctrl-Alt-T to open a crosh terminal window
  2. Type top then hit the enter key:
KiB Mem:   3981200 total,  3713696 used,   267504 free

To get the total RAM amount, add up the size of the RAM chips (dimms) reported. If you only see dimm 0, that's your total. If you see dimm 0 and dimm 1, add the size_mb of both.
