| 8 | | To mount the SATA disk, put it into the computer. Then ssh onto the machine. Run `dmesg` to show information on the device names, the kind of thing we would be look for is: |
| 9 | | {{{ |
| 10 | | mptsas: ioc0: attaching sata device, channel 0, id 1, phy 1 |

| 21 | | }}} |
| 22 | | where the name of the disk is sdb (sata disk b) and the partion is sdb1. SATA disks will be 500GB in size. If paranoid and want to look at a time stamped version run |
| 23 | | `sudo less /var/log/messages`. |
