Ontrack Data Recovery offers the following tips for those whose systems may have been damaged by Hurricane Katrina. No matter what the situation, never assume that data cannot be recovered. Do not try to boot up or attempt to open or disassemble any equipment which shows obvious damage. Do not attempt to clean or dry any media or equipment. Common software recovery programs should not be used on water damaged media or equipment, as you may render the data unrecoverable.

Equipment or media sent to Ontrack Data Recovery for repair should be packaged so that it will remain damp, however the packaging itself should remain dry. Damage can be increased if the equipment is sent out for repair in containers which may absorb moisture and fall apart in transit.
