Hello:
How can I identify a hard disk drive which is labeled in dmesg output as ata1.00 or ata1? How can I tell which one this is from the installed drives? Is there a linux command that can help? The best would be to track down to /dev/disks/by-id/xxx drive, because that info contains brand and serial number.
Thanks,
Istvan
The numbering starts from '0' so in dmesg the above is your second Hard Drive (the first one would be ata0). Why are you looking in dmesg BTW? Is it because you are getting poor transfer rates from your HDs (that is, they are configured as being connected using 40-wire cables)?
