Abstract

A computer system includes a serial advanced technology attachment dual-in-line memory module (SATA DIMM) device and a motherboard. The SATA DIMM device includes a control chip and an edge connector. The motherboard includes a memory slot and a light emitting diode (LED). When the edge connector is inserted into the memory slot, first power pins, first ground pins, and first indication pin of the memory slot are respectively connected to second power pins, second ground pins, and second indication pin of the SATA DIMM device. The motherboard outputs a voltage to the control chip through the first and second power pins. The control chip detects and calculates the storage capacity of the SATA DIMM device and outputs a control signal to control the LED to turn on or not, for displaying free memory capacity of the SATA DIMM device.
