Agreed. But you have to *know* the drive serial number or UUID to do

that information available.
It's in procfs, sysfs, ioctls and via dmesg. It's not hard to get at !
and if you are doing it in advance you can also use labels which are even
easier to remember than uuids

If the labels are worn off / inaccessible
you can install hardware lister:
yum install lshw (lshw-gui)
which will return the serial numbers.
