Packaging and shipping instructions:

1. Packing - 

Pack the media to be evaluated, along with any controllers or proprietary hardware using anti-static or ESD bags and foam block s or bubble wrap. PLEASE DO NOT USE 'POPCORN' FOR SHIPPING, (Popcorn packing material tends to generate a static charge during shipping, and does not protect your media). DO NOT use Overnight Letter Envelopes or Soft Paks to ship Hard Disks. The receiving address for our offices is 

Data Recovery Labs, Inc.
ATTN: EVALUATIONS
2045 Lawson Road
Clearwater, Florida 33763

2. Include - 

A.  Brief summary of the circumstances leading to the current state of the defective media. (Your initial call allows us to log a quick synopsis of your situation, but as always more information provided never hurts.)

B. Completed Authorization to Evaluate form.

C.  If you are using a non-standard or rare controller it may be necessary to include the 
controller in shipment. This will generally apply to Novell or MFM clients only.

D. Payment arrangements. Company, Personal, Cashiers Check, or Money Order as well as all major Credit Cards are welcome. Purchase orders will only be accepted from Government and Educational Institutions (all terms NET DUE unless otherwise approved). Wire Transfers are also acceptable. Please contact your Customer Service Representative for other arrangements if necessary.

3. Expedite Options are Available

Your damaged media will be evaluated within 24 to 48 hours after check-in. Expedited evaluation (2 to 3 hours) is available at your option. Recovery typically takes 3 to 5 days on standard systems. An expedited recovery option will be presented depending on the outcome of evaluation. You will find the fees associated with expedite options listed on the Authorization to Evaluate.

After evaluation you will be contacted with a full report of the engineer's evaluation. We strive to keep each client updated with the status of the recovery, and encourage you to call at any time with additional questions and/or information.
