How do you read the hard drive serial number?

If you type VOL at the DOS prompt it should tell you what the serial number is for that drive. You could wedge it over to a text file to keep track of it with your NeoBook app...

In a BAT file...
VOL > myfilename.txt

Would show this...

Volume in drive C is Vol_Name
Volume Serial Number is 13F5-129E

You could then read line 3 of this file...

FileRead "C:\myfilename.txt" "3" "[line]"
SubStr "[line]" "25" "99" "[hdd_sn]"

If there's a better way to do it, let us know! =)
