Include the information you copied, to try and see what it is, It might be a home appliance, tv or sound system. or even some device from your neighbor that just tried to pair but never succeded

Turn all cell phones and wireless phones around the computer completely off (remove batteries), and see if the device goes away.  Those are likely culprits.  If that isn't the issue, please post the device info here and we can probably hazard a guess.

Agree with arana.  If you have neighbors within 100 feet and they have a laptop, tablet, cell phone, wireless phone, HDTV, ... the list goes on ... you may be seeing a device that belongs to somebody else.

Don't forget your car.  Many have bluetooth capabilities as well.

After looking through the information above, I'm forced to say I don't see Bluetooth devices.  I see a USB disk drive, the infamous HP wireless button, and what appears to be a virtual hard drive.  Would you point out the specific section containing the suspect device?
