DONE: Find hard Drive Serial Number (HDSN)

(1/4) > >>

jdd:
Hello from newbie.  This is my first post.

Don't know if this is a reasonble request but I will ask anyways.....I would like a way to find the hard drive serial number (not the volume serial number).  Is that reasonable?

Thanks,
jdd

Carol Haynes:
Try the drive manufacturer's website - they often have free downloadable utilities (certainly WD and Seagate do) to do this.

jdd:
I need to fin the HDSN for any manufacturer's drive.  Can anyone help?

Carol Haynes:
What kind of drives have you got? I would imagine that each manufacturer will store the info in different ways so it may not be possible to do this in a generic way.

If you are desparate look at the disc drive it will be printed on there.

jdd:
I need to send an executable to a total stranger(s) with hard drive of unknown manuacturer and have them run an exectuable that will outpt a *.txt file (or something similar) that contains the HDSN.  I am not a programmer and I don't know how to do this but an explanation of the code can be found here:
