Somesh,
I don't understand what registration problem has to do with HDD serial number. As I said if you mean protection HDD serial wouldn't be much help to you. Try ethernet card address then.
Anyway it's your decision (I wouldn't rely on changeable parts - if you do that be prepared for support calls even years after).
