To find out how many CPU's a given system has, you can look at '/var/log/dmesg', or simply look in '/proc/cpuinfo'.

Both should state how many CPU's you have in your system.

As for Disk, the '/var/log/dmesg' file should show how many individual disks are in the system that arn't in a hardware RAID array (look for entries that start with 'hd' or ' sd').

If you are using Hardware RAID however, you will need to look at the RAID controller's BIOS (if it doesn't have available Linux utilities).

The perl script mentioned is a useful one to have.
