So I recently threw away some wireless peripherals; I have one from logitech left over and I've no idea what it's for. Is there a way to identify drivers in it or read on a GUI what it's for?

Any Logitech receiver with the Unifying logo (Logitech Unifying Software for Mac: Free Download Review [Latest Version]) can be reassigned to any Unifying-compatible device with Logitech Unifying Software.

 

If that logo is not present, you'll likely have a hard time identifying generic Logitech receivers.

If you go into device manager and see what it identifies as. May or may not tell you exactly.
