gettting disk info from console
Hi all, can someone tell me the easiest was to get disk info from a console.

I manage headless servers, and would like to collect the specs on hard drives installed without looking it up through Sun.

The boot messages only tell me the size/name e.g. 'Sun36G'

I want to know the rotation speed, and transfer rate, these machines are used for software performance measurements.

Thanks!

Nothing on a SUN system will be able to give you that info - you have to know the part numbers of the drives installed in the system and look them up under docs.sun.com
