Western Digital disk drive question

Hey,

Anyone know the CMOS ID # for a WD583R disk drive?  I inherited the  
problem of a PeeCee with a dead CMOS battery, so it doesn't know what it  
has.  The user's think it's a 30mb disk, but who knows.  It is a 3.5" HH,  
for what that's worth.  I've tried a couple of obvious choices, to no  
avail.

If nothing else, a phone # for WD that I can call would serve well, too.  

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
