smartctl, hdparm, and sdparm all are valuable tools to obtain hard drive

controller info, not drive info.
Is there a tool to let me get the hard drive make/model/serial numbers from a
hardware RAID setup?
Since you are using HW RAID the tools you mentioned cannot be used to
get the HD serial numbers. This is because the RAID controllers
completely hides the physical disks from the OS. You would need tools
for the RAID controller itself, those should be able to get the info
you need.

Hoping the problem magically goes away by ignoring it is the
"microsoft approach to programming" and should never be allowed.
