You could reboot and look at dmesg.  Or you could look at
/var/log/messages and find the information there from the last time your
rebooted.

Or you could su to root and run "fdisk /dev/hda," then quit with the "q"
key.  Try this again with /dev/hdb and keep going through the alphabet.
When you get something like:

  Unable to open /dev/hdb

Then you have reached the end with the previous drive.
