Repository for storing company-specific property asset numbers for easy tracking Initially set equal to the system serial number

Stored in a protected section of non-volatile memory that can be accessed and modified with the F10 Setup program

Detects whether or not memory DIMMs are present and their type

Hard drive manufacturer, model, and serial number is stored in the hard drive firmware and reported in ROM-based F10 setup
