smartctl -a /dev/ada0 | grep ^Serial
to find the serial number of the drive connected to a particular interface. The adaX or daX would be done for which ever drive is in question. you will then have the serial number which can be found on the drive.smartctl -a /dev/ada0 | grep ^Serial Serial Number: NK1334PEHLBR4S
Just have to shutdown my FreeNas to write down the serial numbers ;-)
Well this post inspired me to make a resource so if anyone later on comes across this looking for information I have two ways posted for you to figure it out. Via the GUI or Command Line.

This is actually a brilliant guide for using the GUI, thanks a lot.
One thing you might want to think about doing is labeling the drives.This is actually a brilliant guide for using the GUI, thanks a lot.
just the last four digits of the serial number, which is usually enough to positively identify a drive
FreeNAS doesn't do this because it doesn't know what kind of hardware you have. For that matter, we really can't offer you any advice because we don't know what hardware you have either. In some drive chassis, there is a way to blink the lights by issuing a manual command also, you can find the bay information on some chassis by asking the controller. But your options depend on the hardware you are using, which is why the forum rules say that you are supposed to share your hardware info when you ask a question.To be honest I don't have the slightest on what triggers these indicators, the encasement seems to have additional circuitry between power/sata cables and the disks, so I was hoping there was a bare minimum protocol that would let the "connection" indicator go blinking or something, based on the status detected by the OS.
Alrighty then, this answers my question. I suppose.FreeNAS doesn't do this because it doesn't know what kind of hardware you have.
Oh OK. I don't really have an issue so I didn't think HW specs were relevant. In any case, here:But your options depend on the hardware you are using, which is why the forum rules say that you are supposed to share your hardware info when you ask a question.

It may not be a problem, but I got the impression that you wanted information about if it were possible and how it might be accomplished.I don't really have an issue so I didn't thin HW specs were relevant.
I write the last four digits of the serial number on the disk trays even on my rack server:Ok, again thanks for the info.
What do you think about the other idea, to write the bay number (I have only four so little room for confusion) into the disk description? That should remain associated with the disk and its serial number yes?
This might sound funny, but if you have 5 disks in a raid, how do you identify the faulty drive (physically) in your NAS box?
