WinSim's Design II for Windows Process Simulation Solution A Win32 Application and Source Code for Reading Hard Drive Manufacturing Information January 29, 2015 - Nice article in Code Project: Searching for a reliable hardware ID . October 1, 2013 - Fixed a problem in the source code identified by Torsten Eschner. There is an update for both the source code and the executable. May 21, 2008 - A user of the DiskId32 code has reported a problem when compiling DiskId32.cpp using Borland C++ Builder: "I have performed a few other tests and it turns out that the original precompiled diskid32.exe reported the serial number correctly on Windows Vista with UAC on. The problem occurred when I compiled the source code under Borland C++ Builder. With BCB, the Zero Rights function only seems to work correctly if you select the 'Treat enum types as ints' compiler option which is by default unselected, otherwise the DeviceIoControl function always returns error 87." January 29, 2008 - Added a new function ReadPhysicalDriveinNTUsingSmart using SMART_GET_VERSION and SMART_RCV_DRIVE_DATA. This new function works well but it requires administrator rights on Win2K, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Vista. January 25, 2008 - Updated the code to add a debugging mode (code from Gonzalo Diethelm). Discovered that the "no user rights" mode often fails on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Vista with SATA hard drives. Also verified that the SCSI bypass mode has been removed from the Windows Server 2003 and Vista device drivers. April 16, 2007: This code works on Vista. Barely in both admin mode and user mode. Different methods of access are used for each mode. However, if you have two SATA hard drives then the Vista will swap between them for the first hard drive. I have not been able to figure this out and consider it a MAJOR bug in Vista. Please note that I fully expect Microsoft to remove this hard drive access in any future release of Windows. October 27, 2005: fixed a bug in identifying SATA drives with admin access on Windows XP SP2 or Guest access September 28, 2005: added the printing of the MAC address to DiskId32 November 25, 2003 - added a new method for accessing the IDE (and possibly) SCSI disk drives without admin rights on Windows NT / 2K / XP. Also added another algorithm for acccessing disks using the IOCTL_STORAGE_GET_MEDIA_SERIAL_NUMBER method but I could not get it to work on my USB hard drives. October 23, 2003 - it has been reported that the SCSI pass-thru does not work in Windows 2003 Server. October 6, 2003 - verified that DiskId32 does work with SATA drives in addition to PATA drives. However, DiskId32 does not work with USBhard drives for some reason. August 22, 2003 - updated DiskID32.cpp and DiskId32.exe by checking the SCSI back door code from 2 controllers to 16 controllers. This now checks IDE addon boards like the Promise Boards, Maxtor Boards, etc... in Windows XP, 2000 and NT. May 2, 2002 - updated the VXD code for greater reliability in Windows 95/98/ME Mar 27, 2002 - changed from printing the number of sectors to printing the number of bytes Feb 11, 2002 - changed from printing the number of cylinders to numberof sectors May 18, 2001 - Added retry 10 times to the Win9X code Feb 13, 2001 - Converted from WinIO to VXD Nov 6, 2000 - Updated Jun 12, 2000 - Created DiskId32 is a Win32 console utility for reading the manufacturor's information from your hard drives. It runs under Windows 9X, Win NT, Win 2K and Win XP (Pro/Home). DiskId32 does not run on plain old DOS and I highly doubt that it works on Windows 3.x. It does NOT require administrator rights for Win NT/2K.
DiskId32 does not work with network drives. All queried hard drives must be physically connected to the PC.

DUGIDE is another freeware 16 bit DOS program for getting information about your hard disk drives. It only runs in DOS. It does not work in a DOS windows under Windows 3.x, Win 9X or Win NT / 2K.
HD Tune is a totally awesome freeware utility for identifying, testing and monitoring your hard drives. SmartMonTools is a utility for identifying and monitoring your hard drives using the SMART interface. Microsoft has an interface built for querying a "media id" from devices but this appears not to work for IDE hard drives: IOCTL_STORAGE_GET_MEDIA_SERIAL_NUMBER . This method is implemented in DiskId32 but has yet to be tested successfully yet due to the lack of the proper media device. Links for Investigating Direct Hardware Access under Windows
