How to retrieve HDD Firmware Serial number in .net?

Hi,

How can I retrieve HDD Firmware Serial number in .net? I am able to retrieve HDD Serial number using WMI calls but not able to find any way to retrieve HDD Firmware Serial number.

Thanx in advance

Use WMI. SImply as that - this is a low level function that no "sane" higher level API will support (it is useless to read or write files). WMI is made exactly for that - managing the lower levels.

This is a really vague answer without an example or specific WMI information related to the question.
