We can get each drive's serial number, power on hours, and manufacture date with the following one-liner:
for dev in {b..y}; \
do echo "### /dev/sd$dev" && \
sudo smartctl -a /dev/sd$dev | awk '/Serial number:/{serial=$NF} /hours:minutes/{powerontime=$NF} {FS="\n"}/Manufactured in /{manufacture=$NF}END{print serial; print powerontime; print manufacture; printf "\n"}'; \
done
Make sure to update this list only when a disk is newly installed. Also note the date of installation for the disk.
Or, if you're only updating one drive:
- Set the
$devvariable to the drive letter you want to check (e.g. for/dev/sdr, usedev=r) - Run the one-liner:
smartctl -a /dev/sd$dev | awk '/Serial number:/{serial=$NF} /hours:minutes/{powerontime=$NF} {FS="\n"}/Manufactured in /{manufacture=$NF}END{print serial; print powerontime; print manufacture; printf "\n"}'
