A list of Ancient Tech (This page is under construction):
Atlantis (City-Ship)
Atlantis is probably one of the Ancient's greatest achievements. Not only is it a beautiful city but it is capable of intergalactic travel. It is powered by 3 Zero Point Modules (ZPM), is equipped with a powerful energy shield and an arsenal of GJODs (Glowy Jellyfish of Doom) also know as Drones. It has several science labs and at least one Jumper bay full of there scout ships (Puddle Jumpers).
The Stargate
The Stargate is the most well known of the Ancients technological achievements. Made mostly of "Naqahdah" Stargates are typically 6.7 meters in diameter and weigh about 64,000 lbs. Stargates are capable of transporting matter almost instantly over vast distances, even to other galaxies, by establishing artificial wormholes between two gates.
DHD (Dial Home Device)
(Milkyway ---------- and ---------- Pegasus)
The DHD is encased in a pedestal and has 38 symbols (on the Milkyway DHDs and 36 on the Pegasus DHDs) which match those on its Stargate plus a large activation button in the center. Each symbol lights up as the address is entered. Usually, each Stargate has a DHD nearby (unless it is a SpaceGate). The SGC does not have a DHD, they instead use a bank of supercomputers to operate their Stargate instead.
The Aurora-class battleship
Known ships:
Aurora (Status: Destroyed),
Orion (Status: Destroyed),
Tria (Status: Unknown most likely destroyed)
The only known type of warship built by the Ancients are the interstellar warships dubbed the Aurora-class by the Atlantis expedition in honor of the Aurora and her crew. Equipped with Ancient shields, drones, sublight engines, hyperdrive, and more then likely other technology which has not yet mentioned. About 500 meters in length and about 220 meters wide.
Puddle Jumper
Ancient Superweapon (Aka: GJODs or Drones)
Drone Weapons are hybrid energy and projectile weapons and are incredibly powerful and can bypass shielding; a pair of drones were able to destroy a Goa'uld mothership. They are normally controlled by a Ancient Control Chair which can send thousands of drones swarming to attack an entire fleet of targets at once. Both Puddle Jumpers and Aurora-class battleships have Drones.
Ancient Control Chair
The Ancient Control Chair is a device which functions as a mental interface for those with the Ancient gene. The chair has been encountered on various Ancient outposts and in the Ancient's city-ships. It can interface with holographic systems, allowing the user to project maps into the air, display information gathered by its sensors, as well as cross-reference information from the user's memory with existing information in the database, allowing it to compensate for continental drift on maps. Although normally powered by a Zero Point Module, they can be powered for a short time using a Mark II Naqahdah reactor in a "controlled overload", this provides just enough energy to activate the chair.
Personal Shield
Stasis Pod
Stargate Power Node
Project Arcturus
Zero Point Module
By drawing zero point energy from an artificially created region of subspace it is capable of generating a large amount of power. Since this process is thermodynamically irreversible, a ZPM when it is used will eventually reach maximum entropy, at which point it is depleted and can no longer provide power.

The following list is from Wikipedia:
DNA Manipulation Device
The DNA Manipulation Device was discovered on the planet designated P3X-367 and was in the hands of the Goa'uld Nirrti who was continuing her pursuit of creating the perfect human host. The subject would stand on a raised platform and the device would display the double helix structure of his/her DNA in a holographic projection. The control console of the Manipulator permitted the operator to rotate the holographic projection of the DNA strand and also to actually make modifications to the subject's DNA. Nirrti used this device on the inhabitants of the planet and caused tremendous mutations in their physical and mental forms. The inhabitants discovered Nirrti's deception, killer her, and destroyed the device after they used it to restore all those who were affected by DNA changes. Another DNA Manipulation Device was discovered in an underground lab on the planet P3X-584 and was used by Anubis to advance a human-Goa'uld hybrid toward ascension. Anubis's experimentation was much more sophisticated than Nirrti's because he had discovered Ancient research on ascension. The DNA Manipulation Device could have been used by the Ancients to artificially ascend, to activate the gene needed to operate most of their technology, to render gene therapy for various afflictions, to find ways to cure victims of the plague, or to find methods of killing the plague itself. (6.16 "Metamorphosis", 8.18 "Threads", 9.09 "Prototype")
Stargate Destroyer
The Stargate Destroyer uses a Stargate to destroy another Stargate by establishing a wormhole to the victim Stargate and sending an energy beam which causes a build-up in the Stargate's storage capacitors. The energy beam builds this power slowly, almost without detection, until the target Stargate overloads. The naquadah with which the Stargate is built enhances the explosion, guaranteed to not only destroy the Stargate, but ultimately the planet (due to changes in the atmosphere and weather). Anubis found one of these Stargate Destroyers and it was destroyed by Teal'c's son, Rya'c. The address or name of the planet was not disclosed. (6.01 "Redemption Part 1", 6.02 "Redemption Part 2")
Telchak Device
The Telchak Device is named after the Goa'uld Telchak who used its design to create the first sarcophagus. The technology worked as a healing device for the Ancients, but it proved dangerous to humans if they were exposed to it for too long a time at too close a distance. Anubis conquered Telchak, but never found the device. He understood the technology, however, and used it to give life to his Kull Warriors. If a human were exposed to the powers of the device after death, the energy absorbed by the dead tissue reanimates it—creating a zombie. The Telchak Device was hidden in a subterranean structure built by the Mayans in modern-day Honduras and spawned the Fountain of Youth myth. It was discovered by Dr. Daniel Jackson and Dr. Bill Lee and studied by the Tok'ra to help the SGC develop a weapon which would counteract the Kull Warriors' life energy. (7.11 "Evolution Part 1", 7.12 "Evolution Part 2", 7.16 "Death Knell")
Eye of the Gods
The Eye of the Gods was left by the Ancients of P9G-844 and found and used by the Sodan Jaffa who discovered the planet 5,000 years ago. The technology is hidden inside a stone obelisk and transports people from the site of one Eye to that of another. The user inputs a code and all of those within a close proximity are transported. (9.08 "Babylon")
Interdimensional Device
SG-1 discovered an interesting device in an Ancient research facility on the planet P9X-391. They brought it home and suddenly, everyone on the base was seeing these strange creatures (some of them extremely insect-like). After Jonas Quinn translated some of the glyphs, they determined that the device was designed for one to observe creatures in dimensions close to his/her own. The particle wave that the device emitted was like food to attract the creatures and anyone who touched the machine would be able to see them. If a person touched the device, their natural electrical field was changed so that the person could see the closest dimension. The ability to see this dimension was passed on from person-to-person through touch. Carter and Jonas modified the placement of the power crystals of the device and reversed its charge so that a person would no longer see the creatures. The disposition of the device is not known (either it was returned to the planet or it was sent to Area 51 for further study). (6.13 "Sight Unseen")
