ls -l /dev/disk/by-path | grep 'ata-5' > I think dm-0 is a reference to a Raid setup. To get the UUID: sudo dmsetup info /dev/dm-0 | grep UUID then: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid | grep the_uuid_from_above To see the model and serial number of a particular drive identifier eg sda1, use: ls -l /dev/disk/by-id and look at the output for the symlinks that link to sda1. But you don't have to do any of this to follow my previous suggestion, just reseat *every* SATA connector, at each end of the cable. Usually it's a simple, quick task.
