This was tested on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) LTS Server. It returns the name of the symlink within /dev/disk/by-id for the physical drive you specify.

-2ls -l /dev/disk/by-id | egrep ata-.*`hdparm -i /dev/sda | grep SerialNo | sed 's/.*SerialNo=//' | tr -d "\n"`.*sda$ | sed -e 's/.*ata-/ata-/' -e 's|[ ].*||' | tr -d "\n" -
