Getting Serial Number of the Hard Drive Provided by the manufacturer through PHP : How can it be done? I want to store it in a file.

OS : windows 2000,XP,ME,Vista...

Yes, I want the serial number of the hard drive of the Server.

Or can it be done through Adobe AIR? Or can it be done through a C program on Windows?

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>dir
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is BC16-5D5F

Is this number : BC16-5d5f unique for a hard drive? How is it different from the manufacturer given serial number?

This command
**wmic DISKDRIVE GET SerialNumber**
Displays only the following text
on my Vista Machine : 
SerialNumber

On my XP machine,
the command is unrecognized
