disk drive inventory


Hi all - I have a very simple question: I need to find out about the disk drives in my RHEL 5.3 system. I need to know their type, capacity, vendor part no, etc... What cmd would give me this info? I did the SYSTEM > ADMIN > HARDWARE GUI-pulldown, but could not see the disk drives in the list!
