Can't tell if a 2960X has a stack module installed.

I'm trying to determine if several C2960X switches we own have stack modules installed.  When I do a show inventory the module is not called out.  I can't find a way to tell if a switch has a module installed without physically looking at the switch.  Anyone have an idea?

 

I'm pretty sure that site1 does NOT have a stack module installed:

site1#sh inve
NAME: "1", DESCR: "WS-C2960X-24PS-L"
PID: WS-C2960X-24PS-L  , VID: V01  , SN: ZZZZZZZZZZZ

NAME: "GigabitEthernet1/0/25", DESCR: "1000BaseLX SFP"
PID: GLC-LH-SMD          , VID: V01  , SN: ZZZZZZZZZZZ


site1#sh swit detail
Switch/Stack Mac Address : 0000.0000.0000

----------------------------------------------------------
*1       Master 0000.0000.0000     1      4       Ready

I pretty sure that site2 DOES have a stack module installed:

site2#sh inv
