What you're doing is the same thing as what Garry
is doing. He's using WMI via script. You're using a WMI
wrapper applet for command line. Both are using WMI.

No, not the same ... mine is retrieving the physical disc's serial number set
in the facctory, which should correspond to the serial number printed on the
disk itself; Garry is retrieving the logical drive letter's volume serial,
written whenever a partition is formatted, and will probably be the same on a
cloned disk as the disk it was cloned from.
