HDDPhysic is a stand-alone component ( 32/64-bit Windows dynamic-link library – DLL ) that can be used to extract the physical vendor information from the computer hard disk drive (such as the unique serial number or model number).
Why should I need the physical hard drive info ?
The physical hard disk serial number is a unique number per hard drive device. it unless you change the hard drive. (You can find the actual physical serial number written on your hard drive, just have a look at the hdd labels if you can access your hardware).
HDDPhysic can also detect where windows is installed, on which hard drive (See GetPhysicInfo function) .
