Generally it depends on operating system. I know how you can do it with
Linux:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <linux/hdreg.h>

int main()
{
struct hd_driveid hd;
int ide;
ide=open("/dev/hda",O_RDONLY);
(void)ioctl(ide,HDIO_GET_IDENTITY,&hd);
(void)printf("Serial number - %s\n",hd.serial_no);
return (0);
}

P.S.: this code is sample only, profesional program will contain error
checking and some more ..
