Adding Disks

Adding disks in Linux involves partitioning, creating filesystems, and mounting. Use lsblk to list devices, fdisk /dev/sdX to create partitions, mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX1 to create filesystems, and mount /dev/sdX1 /mount/point to mount. This process prepares new storage devices for seamless integration into the Linux filesystem hierarchy.
