get hardware serial number of USB stick with php

[yosibeck]

Hi Folks,

 

Is it possible to read the hardware serial number of a USB stick from a php script running on that stick?

I have a script running on usb under XAMPP and want it to read the serial number.

So far on the web I only found c++ and similar solutions but not PHP.

 

Thanks

Yossi

You'd have to use a shell command, like dir on Windows, to get it.

C:\>dir
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 9675-8706
