Once you’ve clicked on the Server Information link, you’ll be able to view complete details of your server including number of processors, type of processors, memory information, RAM usage, system information and Physical disks space usage among others.
The Server Information page gives us information about the specific hardware configuration of the server.
For example, you can see the processor installed on the server. Dual core processors will display as two separate but identical processors. Quad core processors will display as four separate but identical processors.
