PITA. You will probably need to open the box and look at the label on
the drive.
The Maxtor software I use to check our hard drives tells what the SN is,
among other things.
Now, the company should be open. Possibly send their Tech Support an
email and ask if there is a way for you to get the SN, without opening the box.
Two of our Dell Dimension boxes are very easy to open, if the plastic
doesn't bend,
but in our 3 other boxes, this would be a PITA.
