Upgrade DS1812+ RAM to 6GB

After I found there is an internal memory also can be replaced, I decided to try replace it with higher capacity memory.

Before

I got one 4GB memory and one 1GB default memory.

Swap

Because the default is not easy to reach and I'm not sure whether the slot is suitable for 4GB RAMs or not, so I swap two RAMs and boot.

Result: It works. Not the default memory slot has 4GB RAM in it.

Upgrade to 6GB

Then I replace the 1GB memory to 2GB as below.
