I ran lshw and found out about the battery of the laptop that it has 4
cells. It appears as battery 0, battery 1, battery 2, battery 3. However,
based on the model of the battery it is supposed to be 6 cells. I was
wondering which one is correct.

The model of the battery is Samsung AA-PB9NC6B  11.1V, 4400 mAh. On the
battery it shows it's Li-Ion battery. lshw shows it's nickel cadmium.
