winapi - Does GetVolumeInformation() returns a unique volume serial number? -
the documentation getvolumeinformation() says:
this function returns volume serial number operating system assigns when hard disk formatted. programmatically obtain hard disk's serial number manufacturer assigns, use windows management instrumentation (wmi) win32_physicalmedia property serialnumber.
does windows assigns unique volume serial number, or multiple machines have same volume serial number?
the volume serial number dword
. there 232 different possible values of dword
. therefore stands reason since there finite number of possible values, , unbounded number of volumes in world, there multiple volumes sharing same serial number.
