need help to identify if server disk is hdd or nvme (solved)
Hello, i'm helping a friend who someone sold him a "dedicated server" from ovh.
So while checking i realize the server is actually a virtualized LXC container.
Icon name: computer-container
Chassis: container
Machine ID: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Boot ID: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Virtualization: lxc
Operating System: CentOS Linux 8
CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:centos:centos:8
Kernel: Linux 3.10.0-1160.6.1.el7.x86_64
Architecture: x86-64
From processor model (E-2274G) i can say is this server https://www.ovhcloud.com/es/bare-metal/infra/infra-1/
The thing is: the server have a 4TB disk but i want to know if is a NVMe disk (maybe is ok the cost he paid) or is the HDD one maybe on raid 0? because seems to have good speeds.

The purpose of virtualize is for better management/provisioning and billing.
From disk performance is similar to RAID 0 SSD or RAID 1 NVME

To save anybody who, like me, didn't know, from having to look it up, this seems to be the output of
hostnamectl
