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....
