I ran the command file -sL /dev/sda*, and out of nine drives, the first part of the output of the seventh one says /dev/sda7: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data.



Just to make sure, does this mean I have an ext4 partition and not a btrfs one?

  • ext4 is the journaling file system for Ubuntu and most of other Linux distros, so it is normal to have ext4 partitions.

  • You can also run df -hT (T being the important switch) so see the filesystem type.
