If you want to get HDD model, serial and revision number than you need this little library with just one function that is easy to use and to remember.

BOOL asHDid(int nHd, int nSn,LPSTR cBuffer);

This library is for Windows NT/2000/XP and you don't need to have administrative rights.

nHD is number in range 0 to 3 (0 is first master IDE drive)

nSn is number 1,2 or 3 (1 mean you want model, 2 you want
serial number, 3 you want revision number)

cBuffer is pointer where to put information you request. Size of this string buffer must be at least 41 bytes including terminating zero.

Nice thing is that you don't need administrative rights.
This library can be used on Windows NT/2000/XP only.

If you want to protect your applications, this little library will do the job.

Here we don't use WMI only windows API.
You have some data in Windows registry but we get them from devices.
