This page gives you a description of Hard Drive Identify Version 1.0.
This program is a system information tool for your hard drives.
Hard Drive Identify Version 1.0 is a program that shows you the Hardware Model Number, Hardware Serial Number and Firmware Revision Number for your IDE, EIDE and SATA hard drives.
This program will only work with your SATA hard drives if they are
using one of your IDE controllers.
SATA hard drives can use an IDE controller or an SATA controller.
This program does not work with pci express cards.
Also this program does not work with raid drives.
The information this program gives you is usually printed on the label of the hard drive.
The program will allow you to view this information without opening up your computer to look at the hard drive label.
This program uses direct hardware access to view this information.
Because this program uses direct hardware access to view this information this means that even if your computer bios will not recognize your hard drive this program will see your hard drive because it does not use the bios to look at the hard drive.
Your hard drive needs to be working at the hardware level to get this information.
You may wonder how this information can be useful to you.
Below are a few things that you can find out about your hard drive using this program.
You can do a search on the internet for the Hardware Model Number or the Hardware Serial Number and this search will tell you what the specifications of the hard drive are such as:
1. How many gigabytes in size the hard drive is.
2. If the hard drive is 5400, 7200, 10,000 or 15,000 rpms
3. What type of hard drive you have installed. The type of hard drive installed will be IDE, EIDE or SATA.
4. You can find out how much cache memory the drive has.
You can find out more information about your hard drive than just these four things. These four things are just examples of what you can find out about your hard drive. If you want to replace your hard drive with a bigger hard drive or faster hard drive then the four examples mentioned above will be very helpful to you.
Knowing the Firmware Revision Number can be useful in the following situation below:
If your hard drive is working good enough at the hardware level for Hard Drive Identify Version 1.0 to get the Firmware Revision Number then you can use this number if you want to replace the controller card on the hard drive. You have to make sure that the controller card from the new hard drive that you buy has the same Firmware Revision Number as the one on the old hard drive.
The only reason to replace the controller card on a hard drive is because the controller card is not working properly.
Another use for the Firmware Revision number is as follows:
Lets say that you want to update the firmware on the hard drive.
You will need to know the Firmware Revision Number in order to know what version of the firmware is on the hard drive before you update it.
You want to make sure that a newer firmware exists than what is on the hard drive before updating.
The cost of the registered version Hard Drive Identify Version 1.0 is $25.00
