Any way to get System Specs including HDD info?

[Kelemvor]

I have a bunch of old computers I need to invetory and I'm wondering what the easiest way to get all the system specs, including the HDD size, on one screen.

I know I can check system properties or DXDiag but those don't list the hard drive size. I've found some utilities that scan the whole computer and take a few minutes and bring back tons of stuff but I don't really need quite that much detail.

I can get it myself by checking a few different screens but was just looking to save some time but a simple screen or utility I can run that would just show it for me.

Thanks.

Is Belarc Advisor still a thing? That gave pretty complete reports, but I'm not sure how thorough it was for hardware.

That's the one I tried that took 5 minutes or so to scan everything on the entire PC and give me a huge report but it was way more than I wanted and took a while too. Trying the Speccy thing now.

Does System Information not work? I'm pretty sure HDD info is under Components > Storage.

Both are great suggestions. If you want the gist of your hardware without any build dates or serial codes, just use Speccy. Belarc Advisor has a harder to understand layout but is more thorough in giving you additional info (i.e revision number, build date, etc etc) and it also lists windows updates yada yada.

Right but I'm looking for it all to be on one screen and not have to click around through tabs or bullets or anything. Speccy looks to work well. Just have to see if I can run it form a flash drive without installing it...

If you are somewhat familiar with powershell or vbscripting there are a ton of resources on how to customize scripts to do this with little effort. You could output it to an appended CSV file on the flash drive and get a nice custom list of the info.

Yeah, stupid me. These are all Dell machines so all I have to do is Boot into BIOS and the very first page has all the info I'm looking for. *sigh* But I'll keep Speccy and Belarc in my bag of tricks for when it comes up again.

Thanks.
