hi,

anyone know any utility that can identify HDD MODEL inside a USB CHASIS/PORTABLE HDD?

Open it up and read the label?

HD Sentinel, CrystalDiskInfo, smartmontools seem to work with most bridges. However, some of the older bridges are not able to report HDD information.

Thanks, it worked.

I would not ask for an utility if it be allowed to open the chassis which voids warranty.
