Hi. If anyone has multiple partitions (computer with Macintosh OS X) then please can u give me the output of system_profiler SPSerialATADataType command on the terminal?

If system_profiler SPSerialATADataType doesn't give any output then try one of the following:
system_profiler SPIDEDataType
system_profiler SPSerialSCSIDataType

Whichever command out of these three gives an output, please tell me what the output is. On my system i m having only 1 partition. I just want to know what the format of output is for multiple partitions. The output that i m getting on my system is as follows (for command system_profiler SPIDEDataType):
