1. Driver Doctor Serial Key
2. Disk Doctor Serial Number Search

From the Windows NT-based (Windows XP and 7 specifically) command prompt, how can I get the serial number of a hard drive as a variable? The one I'm looking at is the serial number of the physical hard disk drive

Hi: I am interested in getting a utility that allows me to change the serial number of a hard disk or a floppy disk. I will illustrate my point by showing you what I mean. When we type the VOL command in DOS mode the information presented to us is as follow: C: WIN95>vol Volume in drive C has no label. Disk Doctors Ntfs Data Recovery 2.0 1 Crack DOWNLOAD (Mirror #1). Data Recovery Software from Disk Doctors to recover data from Crashed Hard Drive memory cards ipod music players supports Windows NTFS & FAT Linux Ext2 Ext3, Mac HFS+ HFSX, UNIX (Solaris) UFS File System and Outlook Email Recovery & PST Repair, digital photo recovery and to recover deleted files.

vol C:

this will get the volume serial number given to it by windows.

wmic diskdrive get serialnumber

this gets the manufacturers serial number of the hard drive.

• What you are looking at is NOT the hard drive serial number.

• It is called the Volume Serial Number. It is generated at the time of creating and formatting the volume / partition.

• You can get it by using a command at command prompt : C:> vol c: if C: is the drive you want to retrieve the Volume Serial Number for.

• All you can do is redirect the output of that command to a file : C:> vol c: > myvol.txt and it will be stored as a text file in your C:

• I am attaching a screenshot with the highlights:

• The file was stored in the root of C:

• This is what the myvol.txt file looks like in Notepad:

In the same vein as Moab's answer, but using PowerShell this time:

This command gets an instance of the Win32_DiskDrive WMI class and outputs the model of each disk drive in the computer and its corresponding serial number from that instance.

This answer assumes PowerShell 3.0 or later. If running an older version, use Get-WmiObject in place of Get-CimInstance.

On Windows 8 and later, you can also use this command:

In a batch file one approach is:

1. VOL command to produce the serial number as text along with text we don't want.
2. FIND to trim it down to only the line with the serial number.
3. FOR to grab the 5th token (a part between delimiters) on the line with the serial number.
4. SET to assign to an environment variable

I wanted to get the serial number assigned by Hard disk manufacturer.

The serial number is usually printed in the hard disk. Normally to get the serial number, I have to take out the hard disk.

Is it possible to know the hard drive serial number from command prompt or in other way.

Before posting this question I have gone through this question but I am getting the error in the following screenshot:

CrystalDiskInfo will display this information as well as all other S.M.A.R.T. data if the computer supports it. It's free, check it out.

If this is unable to pull the serial number then I would double check your BIOS settings and make sure that you have S.M.A.R.T. enabled.

If this is not an option I'd Google the computer model specs to see if there is a BIOS update that supports it, if not then the computer is too old and you have to open the machine.

The Win32_PhysicalMedia class suggest that

should do the trick.

However, the WMI struct holding the DiskDrive information

specifically mentions that

Driver Doctor Serial Key

SerialNumber: Number allocated by the manufacturer to identify the physical media.

Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP: This property is not available.

I know of no other way to obtain it, sorry.

Cheers,

Press Windows Key + R

type

It will show details of almost everything in the system. Locate to storage and find the details.

Use below powershell script to get the serial number of hard disk.

Get-WmiObject Win32_PhysicalMedia Format-Table Tag, SerialNumber

If you can't just pull the drive out then try:

Start > Control Panel > System > Device Manager

Expand the Disk Drive and right click the HDD you want. Select Properties > Details Tab. From the drop down select Hardware IDs. It should be listed in there.

EDIT: Since it was different in device manager you could try cmd command:

wmic diskdrive get serialnumber

See if this matches.
