Not sure exactly which information you're after but try:
fdisk -l
and/or
cat /etc/fstab
for each drive listed you can issue (for example for /dev/hda):
hdparm -I /dev/hda
for a detailed list of drive attributes. And you can also poke around
in your /proc filesystem. For example, for an ide drive installed as
/dev/hda:
cat /proc/ide/hda/model
cat /proc/ide/hda/settings
etc....
