I recently bought a new 2,5 USB3 HDD (Western Digital Elements) and I’m curious what drive is actually inside (mainly because I’d like to know if it’s using CMR or SMR, or is there any other way to get that?).
From various other pages I found running wmic diskdrive get Name, Manufacturer, Model, InterfaceType, MediaType, SerialNumber
in command prompt, this works for the internal drives, but for this one I get WXB2A92F2SFH
which I think is the serial of the controller or something, but not of the actual drive (at least googling for it brings up nothing).
