You can probably get the HD information that you need with the "format" command. As user root, type "format" and you will see the hard disks attached to the system then select the one you wish to view. Type "current" and you should get the info you are looking for. When you are done, type "quit" to exit format.

As for the CD-ROM, try running the "prtconf -v | grep -i cd". This may give you the model number.......but I'm not sure about the vendor.

HTH,
Jason

# format
then select the disk if you have more than one disk. Type :
format (menu will reveal itself).
Then type inq
and format>inq or inquiry.
You will get Vendor Name of the Hardisk installed to the system.

Thanks
