I have a pile of approx 20 rack servers to move out of the office and onto ebay or somewhere.

Can anyone recommend a good tool that will display some basic info like CPU type/speed/count/cores, memory, disks, controller card?

For Windows, my personal favorite is Speccy.

If they're servers, use the service tags!

  • +1. There are a billion utilities that do this but Speccy is a good one. I also like SIW.

With a cd/usb live linux distro a mix of commands:

(dmidecode; (lspci; lspci -n)|sort; lshw; hdparm -I /dev/diskdevice) > $(hostname -f)_$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M).log

or

(dmidecode; (lspci; lspci -n)|sort; lshw; hdparm -I /dev/diskdevice) | tee -a $(hostname -f)_$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M).log
