Troubleshooting • Am I running root from my SSD or SD Card?

$

I have a Pi5 with Penta SATA HAT running Raspberry Pi OS Lite and OpenMediaVault installed on it.

64Gb SD card inserted
SDA is a WD Green SATA SSD 480Gb, which I thought I was using as the main root partition, but I'm unsure now

I followed this guide:
https://www.freshblurbs.com/blog/2022/1 ... o-ssd.html

But here's my confusion.

/boot/firmware/cmdline.txt is set to use root drive "rootssd", which is SDA (WD SATA) [cmdline.png image]

/etc/fstab states that PARTUUID=2923c67b-02 (SD Card) is mapped to / , which is the SD card [fstab.png image]

sudo lsblk -o UUID,PARTUUID,NAME,FSTYPE,SIZE,MOUNTPOINT,LABEL,MODEL shows me that SDA (WD SSD) is mapped to / , and that PARTUUID=2923c67b-02 (SD Card) is not mapped to anything! [lsblk.png image]

Which do I believe?
Am I using SD or SSD?

Speed is fine, but my concern is that if I'm using SD Card over SSD, with Docker running on it, I will likely run into stability issues at some point, which I was trying to avoid... or simply run out of space!
