This program gets specific information about a Linux system's installed IDE hard drives (including CDROM's) and prints the information out in a reader friendly format. It is basically an advanced grep, but a timesaver nonetheless. Basically one specifies an IDE disk device (e.g. /dev/hda) and you get a bunch of nifty info about it.
