                  You have a SAN attached to your pfSense box ?  :D Must be a hell of a log-file for those needs  :D

                  Running pfSense on :
                  DL380G4 with ESX Vsphere and DL360G4p bare metal

                      There's also dmidecode. Run:

                      pkg_add -r dmidecode

                      to get it. Then just run dmidecode. Sample output:

                      Some hardware provides better, more thorough info. Most hardware from major manufacturers (Dell, HP, Supermicro, etc.) will list the make, model, serial number, and more, where a lot of that above is blank on that particular piece of hardware. It just pulls the DMI info the hardware makes available, which varies.
