pulling hardware details from command line

[badabing888]

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know the command via command line to pull the hardware details, or point me to a blog / post with those details?
i.e. mobo in use? , type of drives, sata controllers, cpu etc?

I've tried my best googlefu with no success.....

if it helps im running 869L running 4.1.1 firmware.

Regards

Daniel

All QNAP NAS boards and backplanes are proprietary and custom QNAP/IEI designed.

[~] # cat /proc/cpuinfo
...
[~] # hdparm -i /dev/sd[a..h]
...

Sites like smallnetbuilder.com might show some internals, in text or on pictures.

thanks for that i was hoping i wouldnt need to pull apart the nas and i could do it from command line of dmesg would show it, but thanks for the info.

Yeps im trying to compare the sata controllers in my 509pro and 869L.
i know larger then 2tb is not officially supported, but the 509pro is the backup NAS to the 869 so its not mission critical.

I know they changed the sata controller mid stream and my mobo was replaced under warrenty after they had actually stopped production of the 509, so i was hoping i have the later and can use 3tb drives in it.

You might want to recheck the TS-509 Pro Compatible HDD List again. It lists several 2TB Drive models.

The 32bit SATA controller in your TS-509 Pro can not handle anything >2TB.
Comparing SATA Controllers won't change this reality.

You might want to recheck the TS-509 Pro Compatible HDD List again. It lists several 2TB Drive models.

Im aware of the 2tb drives which are or are not compatible (im using hitachis off the list) i didn't ask that in my post so im not sure what that is referring to maybe i didn't explain it properly.

You are correct about the 32bit sata controllers, but this thread also cover differences between the sata controllers which changed mid stream with this model it may or may not be correct. it seems version 2 if you can call it is based off the 809 mobo

http://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?f=182&t=38267

So i was hoping to pull which controller my mobo is using without ripping it apart or buying a 3tb just to see if it works.

Im more then happy if its not "officially supported" as like i said it purely backup only and not mission critical

You are correct. If your TS-509 Pro is using the later design it will support >2TB drives. (Unofficially).
The only reliable way of checking this is with a >2TB drive. It will either work or it won't. Try it and see.

Review the output of:

Code: Select all

lspci -nn | grep -i SATA

This will probably provide some information you can use for further research on your Motherboard components over at: The PCI ID Repository. No one asking this question ever seems to provide this output, and I have no idea what this command would produce for output from a later TS-509 Pro that does support >2TB drives. (Intel changes specification without notice, so output could well be identical on both models for all I know).

Like I said already, the only reliable way of checking this is by using a >2TB drive to see if it works.

Im not aware of what the old version looks like but this is certainly the new mobo that they replaced it with with the dual marvell 7042's and 7 sata ports.

I believe that would make it a Marvell 88SX7042 PCI-e 4-port SATA-II
