This is what I did, it should work:
It worked for the two dates given above..If you want to customize the date output, add a format string at the end of the FINALDATe assignment.

Here is a short script, it takes two arguments:
$1 is the code to convert and $2 is an optional format (see man date ), otherwise defaulted (see code).
It uses the last Saturday in June instead of the first one in July because I found it easer to locate and it allowed me to just add the relevant number of weeks and days to it.

I created a Seagate Date Code Calculator that actually works with pretty good accuracy. I've posted it here on this forum for anyone to use: https://www.data-medics.com/forum/seagate-date-code-conversion-translation-tool-t1035.html#p3261
It's far more accurate than the other ones online which often point to the entirely wrong year. I know it's not a bash script, but will still get the job done for anyone else who's searching how to do this. Hip hop sample pack free download.

This question already has an answer here:
WWN = world wide name
Local Seagate Disk Hard Drive Serial NumberSeagate Constellation ES, model ST3500514NS, a 500 GB 3.5' SATA drive
It has 'serial number', 9WJxxxxx which is eight characters. It has WWN 5000C5002E47xxxx which is a 16 characters. Both are printed on the label on the hard disk drive.
WD model WD4001FFSX, a 4 TB SATA drive
It has 'serial number' WMC5D0Dxxxxx which is 12 characters. It has WWN 50014EE003Fxxxxx which is 16 characters.
HGST, model HUC109060CSS600, a 300 GB 2.5' SAS drive
It has 'serial number' KWJTxxx, also eight characters. It has WWN.. I don't know; it is not printed on the label and not plugged into the system to find out.
For inventory, we generally write down and track the following, which can always be gathered from the label on the drive:
The problem arises obviously 1, 2, 3 years later when an inventory sheet shows whatever hard drive. You are pretty sure it's in a running server, but you don't want to shut down the server to pull the hard drive to read the label.
How do you get the serial number of the drive that corresponds to what is on the label?
udevadm info --query=all --name=/dev/sda has ID_SERIAL, but that is the WWN. We don't want another field to track the 16 characters of the WWN as an identifier.. And I already hate writing down the long serial numbers of WD drives.
Is there a way in Linux to extract the serial number of the drive?
I believe it is possible because years ago the RAID storage manager GUI we had been using nicely reported the eight-character serial numbers of Seagate drives that were in use. And that RAID hardware has listed a bunch of Seagate-specific hard disk drives that were 'officially supported', and if memory serves, really no other make/model of drives.
Is it possible this is hard disk drive firmware related, meaning it can be done on certain make drives and not others?

Assuming the disk supports SMART, you should be able to retrieve the disk serial number using derobert

I only have WD drives to check on now, but
udevadm info --query=all showsboth ID_SERIAL /ID_SERIAL_SHORT (something like WD-WMATV6212345 and ID_WWN (0x50014ee051234567 ). Isn't the first what you are looking for?
smartctl -i also shows both, hdparm -i just the serial.
