+Here is a PowerShell script to gather Windows host info such as OS version, hardware model, memory size, CPU type, core count, BIOS version, BIOS release date, Host hardware serial number.

 Server host information normally don't change that often, so it doesn't need to be run daily. Depending on your environment, schedule this to run monthly or even quarterly. You can always manually kick off this job if needed.
