Using Linux commands to see information about your hardware.

Using the vmstat command to see which hard disk partitions are the busiest is very easy. Use the vmstat -p /dev/sda1 command and your hard disk information will be printed showing the number of reads and writes for each partition. On my Ubuntu system, the /dev/sda1 partition is the busiest.

john@deep-thought ~ $ vmstat -p /dev/sda1 
sda1          reads   read sectors  writes    requested writes
               52947    3191546      12208     860200

And this is the dmidecode command which is used to print information about all installed hardware in your system. Type man dmidecode to read more about this command. This command must be executed with root privileges. The BIOS information is printed at the top of the output.

john@deep-thought ~ $ sudo dmidecode
