Abstract: A label programming system configured to initialize a radiofrequency (RF)-enabled label for attachment to a data storage device includes a platform, an RF read/write assembly disposed on a first side of the platform, and an optical reader assembly in electrical communication with the RF read/write assembly. The optical reader assembly is disposed on a second side of the platform opposite the first side. The optical reader assembly is configured to optically read information from the RF-enabled label and communicate the information to the RF read/write assembly that is configured to write the information to a chip of the RF-enabled label.

Abstract: An electronic data storage device tracing system includes at least one data storage device and a reader system. The data storage device includes a housing having an optical label and a device RFID tag coupled to the housing. In this regard, the optical label is printed with a VOLSER number and the device RFID tag includes a chip that electronically stores the VOLSER number. The reader system is configured to read the VOLSER number from the chip and trace the at least one data storage device entering/exiting the reader system.
