If you have an up dated copy of hdparm, you can use it against libata 
"SCSI" drives to get the serial number:

    # hdparm -V
    hdparm v5.7

    # hdparm -I /dev/sda


    /dev/sda:

    ATA device, with non-removable media
            Model Number:       Maxtor 7L320S0
            Serial Number:      L616D6YH
            Firmware Revision:  BACE1G70
    (and so on....)
