Get serial number for RAM, motherboard, hard disk

by

This post explains how to find serial number for various hardware devices – RAM, Hard disk, Motherboard on a computer. We can use WMIC command to find this information.  These commands can be executed from Windows command prompt.

Get serial number of RAM chips.

wmic memorychip get serialnumber

This command lists serial number for each RAM module installed on the computer. Example below.

c:\>wmic memorychip get serialnumber
SerialNumber
91AB9A10
9EBD9A10

Get serial number for hard disks

wmic diskdrive get serialnumber

Example:

c:\>wmic diskdrive get serialnumber
SerialNumber
FR3AG13032430BC13S

Get serial number for mother boards

wmic baseboard get serialnumber

Get Serial number for cdrom drive

wmic cdrom where drive='d:' get SerialNumber

Replace ‘d:’ with the drive letter for the cdrom on your computer. You get error ‘No Instance(s) available’ if you don’t have CDROM drive on your computer.

c:\>wmic cdrom  get SerialNumber
No Instance(s) Available.
