In linux thereThere are many tools for that, for example lsblk, fdisk -l or parted -l., but probably the most handy is lsblk (aka list block devices):

Example

$ lsblk
NAME           MAJ:MIN  RM  SIZE    RO  TYPE  MOUNTPOINT
sda            8:0      0   238.5G  0   disk
├─sda1         8:1      0   200M    0   part  /boot/efi
├─sda2         8:2      0   500M    0   part  /boot
└─sda3         8:3      0   237.8G  0   part
├─fedora-root  253:0    0   50G     0   lvm   /
├─fedora-swap  253:1    0   2G      0   lvm   [SWAP]
└─fedora-home  253:2    0   185.9G  0   lvm

It has many additional options, for example to show filesystems, labels, etc. As always man lsblk is your friend.

i don't think we mind whether the author had more than 8 devices either; this result is consistent even if it's missing extra devs
