I think you mean memory slots, not PCI card slots. Right?

Look at "dmidecode" output. Find all parts titled "Memory Module Information".
Each of these will have a "Socket Designation" which identifies a memory slot. "Installed Size" reports the amount of memory in that slot. If the slot is free, it will say "Not Installed".

Normally, "Installed Size" and "Enabled Size" should be the same. If they differ, the server cannot use the complete capacity of that memory module for some reason.
