Need to query for HDD info

Hello all,

Just wondering if anyone new a way to query WMI to get HDD model/size info. I've been able to get what I need from survey.txt and surveybase.xml files but they are so verbose so I wanted to just write a clean script to get the info I need. Right now, I can get everything I need except drive model. Anyone have any ideas? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You can download the sourcecode for winventory to check how the disk information is obtained, is available at:

winventory.sourceforge.net
Por que hacerlo dificil si es posible hacerlo facil? - Why do it the hard way, when you can do it the easy way?

Just suggestion:
you can use HP SIM (free application)
http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/hpsim/index.html
With HP SIM you can create any report (include drives models).
Maybe you can ask this question in HP SIM forum as well:
