I have a table that partitioned into six partitions.
each partitions placed in different table space and every two table space
placed it on a different hardisk

when I will do query select with the non-partition keys condition,
how the search process ?
whether the sequence (scan sequentially from partition 1 to partition 6)
or partition in a hardisk is accessed at the same time with other partition in other hardisk.
( in the image, partition 1,4 accessed at the same time with partition 2,5 and 3,6)

It's more an OS question than an Oracle one. Oracle does not care about real physical implementation, its physical level is the file, its logical level (on which execution plan is built) is the partition.
So if you want to know how it does it on your hard disk then use iostat.

Note that "at the same time" is only relevant if the query is executed in parallel which is not the default mode.

No, it means Oracle chooses the way it wants to access the partition, assuming a serialized plan, 1 to 6, or 1 then 2 then 6 then..., or 6 to 1, or odd then even, or... You can make no assumption on the order it will take. The only you can know is that if you parallelize then Oracle will take care of the partition tablespaces to choose an optimal parallelization.
