so the serial number is only 7 digits and letters long and is on a removable sticker on the unit? Surely that cannot be correct because the idea is that the serial number is supposed to be say engraved into the unit for security reasons?- That is the serial number. It is not engraved into the system (though it is also set into the system BIOS).
Quite a bit of electronic equipment these days has just a sticker with the serial number on it - though there are laws that force automakers to put the VIN onto many components permanently, there no such requirement in the US for electronic equipment.
