Can you please tell us the operating system version ?
Code:
# uname -a


To see the hard disks you have (if it's Solaris ), execute:
Code:
# format


Then execute this command to know the hard disk type, for example if the disk partition name is "c0t1d0s0"
Code:
# fstype /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0




If you took a Windows disk and put it in Solaris, then try the "fdisk" utilitiy:
Code:
# fdisk -l
