HDD physical serial number

Hello,
it is possible to read HDD physical serial number from WinNT/2K OS from a ocx file?
Regards,
Stefan

Is the disk serial number returned by WMI what you are looking for? It
takes a couple of calls to get but this method would be the same
programatically on both of your OSes. Given the difference in drivers for
NT and 2k, the same might not be true (I don’t know for sure, I’d have to
try it) going through the drivers to get the data.

DeviceIoConrol/IOCTL_SCSI_MINIPORT/SMART_RCV_DRIVE_DATA will help for
IDE disks.

Hi,
is there any way to get the serial number of SCSI disks on windows
platforms. IOCTL_STORAGE_QUERY_PROPERTY of 2000 DDK will retrieve this
information. This IOCTL is not present in NT DDK. Nothing is mentioned in
the documentation about the availability of this IOCTL on windows NT. So I
don’t have a way to retrieve this information on Windows NT. Is there any
other place where we can get this information.

Thanks in advance,
Nagesh Bhattu

SCSI-2 spec, the chapter on mode pages, the mode pages mandatory for
disk devices.
