I use something like this.. when i commission a drive I allocate it a
unique number like J70 and I then have a spreadsheet that marrys this
up with the serial number of the device.

hdparm etc gives me the serial number, and the lookup identifies the device.

Oh and i write the J70 on little green sticky labels that I then stick
on all 4 edges of the drive...

When I ran servers for an ISP we had a utility which blinked the light on the drive (assumes it hasn't gone utterly belly up, of course).
