I would not use either S/N or model numbers.
Some EU Directives require each unit to be positively identifiable, for
recall if necessary. I don't see how to do that without both model and
serial numbers, although I suppose a long enough serial number would
accommodate many different products. But if you do that logically, e.g.
the first 10 digits identify the product and the rest the individual
unit, that just 'model + serial' in disguise.
