Mac OSX : Get disk partitions' size, type and name
Something when wrong with my Mac today and I need to find out all the disk partitions information on my Mac. So... instead of right-clicking on each items in Disk Utility to get the partition's size information such as this :
Which can be troublesome if there are many disk partitions.
There is a better way to do this, but from the disk utility's command line brother.
Open up terminal and type this command :
>diskutil list
It should list out the partition's location, type , name and size.
and to confirm if the information is indeed correct. I selected a mounted DMG file and right-click to get the disk information.
Hope this short tutorial helps!
