SIV - System Information Viewer VS Hardinfo

I'm running Docker on Linux Mint, and when connecting the Elegoo Neptune 3 I could see the device appear as a "QinHeng Electronics CH340 serial converter" in hardinfo and also by running lsusb in Terminal. Source: over 1 year ago

Hardinfo: Pretty much anything you could want to know except process monitoring. A good complement to the simpler process monitors. Source: about 2 years ago
