I need to know how to get the hardware serial number of a hard disk in

For Windows, see http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread187326.html
This recipe uses the function GetVolumeInformation(), which does not
return the hardware serial number.
From the microsoft documentation:
This function returns the volume serial number that the operating
system assigns when a hard disk is formatted. To programmatically
obtain the hard disk's serial number that the manufacturer assigns,
use the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) Win32_PhysicalMedia
property SerialNumber.
The WMI method is e.g. described here:
http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t359670-wmi-help.html
import wmi
c = wmi.WMI()
for pm in c.Win32_PhysicalMedia():
print pm.Tag, pm.SerialNumber
or to retrieve the serial number for the installation drive:
serial = c.Win32_PhysicalMedia(["SerialNumber"],
Tag=r"\\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0")[0].SerialNumber.strip()
