NVMe Serial Number Detection

[Skippy9250]

How is hardware monitor detecting the serial number of NVMe drives?

I have machines with NVMe drives in them that gives us the EIU number instead of the actual serial number when we try the command: wmic diskdrive get serialnumber.

Yet if I run HWInfo it detects and provides the proper serial number, but I haven't found a way to use HWInfo to pipe the proper serial number for us to use in reporting as needed.

Any help?

HWiNFO retrieves the NVMe serial number directly from the drive via NVMe interface.
WMI is often not reliable or doesn't provide required details.
