Where can I find hardware IDs for iron?
Good afternoon. each part of the computer, according to the idea, should have some unique identifier (hard drive, processor, etc.)
Question: is there a list of all hardware ids somewhere, by which you can understand whether the computer in front of you is unique or not.
As I understand it, aida64 shows this in part, but not all the parameters are there.

What does "unique" mean and why understand it?
Windows, say, is tied to the ID of the motherboard
1C is tied to all components: adding, say, another HDD is another computer for 1C, reactivation is needed.
in the documents for hardware there must be serial numbers, where they are provided
. What does a "unique" computer mean? In a PC, components can be changed as needed / broken, etc.
For Win in the device manager, you can go to the properties of any device, and on the details tab, see the identifier for this hardware model (spoiler), sometimes this is useful if you could not automatically find the driver for some unidentified device, but a unique identifier like IMEI the phone modem to register the device on the network, they will not have, except for the MAC address of the network card.
