Ho can I find out what HD is in my Fantom external drive?

[Rhonda85]

Hello, I just purchased a Fantom GFII1000EU external hard drive and I would like to know what brand of disk drive is inside enclosure. Can someone point me to the right direction to find out. All my usual was of finding out are not telling me what I want to know.

Thanks!

You might have to open up the enclosure to get your answer.

You see what it shows up as in device manager though.

Or if SMART programs can read it, it might also state the model there. (Speedfan, CrystalDiskInfo, etc.)

If you hook it up through esata, just right click on it in my computer and go to properties -> hardware tab. Or do the safely remove hardware and it should show in the list with the model number
