try taking a look at dmesg(8). if your system hasn't clobbered the
boot message, something should be there that looks like:
scsi0 : BusLogic BT-958
scsi : 1 host.
Vendor: FUJITSU Model: MAN3184MP Rev: 0107
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03
Detected scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
Vendor: FUJITSU Model: MAN3184MP Rev: 0107
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03
Detected scsi disk sdb at scsi0, channel 0, id 2, lun 0
Vendor: TOSHIBA Model: CD-ROM XM-6201TA Rev: 1037
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 3, lun 0
Vendor: HP Model: C1533A Rev: A708
Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
in this case you have sda, sdb, and sr0.
if dmesg is filled up with other stuff and the boot log is rotated out,
you can probably find it in a boot.log or syslog file somewhere in
/var
