The hard disk serial number is a unique identifier of the hard disk, which can be used to uniquely identify a hard disk device in a computer system. In programming, we can use APIs provided by various programming languages and operating systems to obtain the hard disk serial number. Below I will introduce how to use the Python programming language to obtain the computer hard drive serial number.
Python is a powerful and easy-to-learn programming language with many libraries that help us perform system-level operations. In this example, we will use psutil
the library to get the hard drive serial number.
First, we need to make sure psutil
the library is installed in our Python environment. The library can be installed using the following command psutil
:
pip install psutil
After the installation is complete, we can start writing the code to obtain the hard disk serial number. Here is a sample code:
import psutil
def get_disk_serial_number():
partitions = psutil.disk_partitions()
