    Software That Can Give A Report Of Hardware On A Computer ?


    Until my recent purchase, my laptops were all approx 8-10 years old and I used "Speccy" to produce an inventory. The programme has not been updated in over 3 years but it did not affect me as my computers were older etc.

    I now have a new computer and would like to get the same information but Speccy gives me "unknown" comments for various things. I know i could just go to the manufacturers site to get some of the info but would prefer a freeware programme like "Speccy" that gives a report.

    I have in the past tried "Winaudit" but this at first glance doesn't seem to have been updated in several years.
    Then there is "Belarc Advisor" which is useful as it keeps updated but is limited in what it can produce in the way of info.

    As an example for "Speccy" I have one of those sticks for a hard drive. I thought drives roughly went IDE, Sata Sata SSD !
    Speccy says I have an SSD but further info "unknown", probably because its a three letter word drive "svd" or something similar. It also says my Intel Graphics were also unknown !

    Any info on a suitable easy to use programme to "Speccy" would be welcome.
    Thanks.

    While the Version History page for Speccy may not have been updated for more than three years, The download itself has been. The current download is for version 1.32.774 and was last updated 03/08/2020.

    The latest version 1.32.774 has no trouble correctly identifying my NvMe SSD.

    I like msinfo32.exe since it's built in.

    It's great but overwhelming!

    There's online stuff - they don't show SSD/ so I recommend this one.

    That's the basic tab, there's advanced too.
