Unless you are running a bios that identifies the HD under hardware profiles you will have to open the case and read the label on the HD

It's hard for me to tell because my BIOS supports HD Identification, but Sandra may do it.

Is it possible to check the maker of a HDD without taking apart or opening the system??

If it's an IDE hd then I have a DOS program that will identify most drives.
Most BIOS's that can auto detect drives at startup, will list the info on the system boot screen. This info goes by quick so you'll have to hit pause the instant you see the hd info. If the manufacturer isn't listed, then tell us what the model info is and we can probably tell you who makes it.
Hope this helps! /forum/smile.gif
