I am trying to clone a Samsung HM160HC drive to another identical drive. HDD raw Copy does not show the serial numbers of the drives correctly, so I do not know which is to be source or target.

Any way to get the serial numbers to show up correctly?

Samsung apparently encodes the serial numbers as WMIC path win32_physicalmedia get serialnumber shows a number, but not the correct serial number. In fact is shows the same number for both drives! It is a swapped digits version of the HDD raw Copy number.

Smartctl shows the correct serial numbers.
