On any Windows system, you can change it using volume ID by Sysinternals (bought out by Microsoft):

You will need to reboot.

That utility from Sysinternals is changing Volume ID, but in this case is needed to change HDD Serial Number. So the question is still the same: How to change HDD Serial Number on Hyper-V virtual machine? – Mark Mar 20 at 20:29
