It also looks at trace flags, plan caches, users etc. Hopefully you’ll find it useful.

Noticed that there is a new setting included in SQL Server 2014 that I would like to add to the script; backup checksum default.

Actually its not yet included in the MSDN article

Configuration option: backup checksum default
Minimum value: 0
Maximum value: 1
Default: 0
Description: Enable checksum of backups by default

I tried something like this last year. I look for the non defaults and I look for a few defaults that I consider “bad” defaults or ones to at least consider.. Of course that is a different standard for each person, but I always think I’m right 😉
