I’m sure everyone has heard about the torrential rains and subsequent flooding that occurred in our nations’ midsection this past week. Towns all over the Midwest have suffered greatly, many losing their homes and some of their most valuable possessions. In some cities in Kansas, an oil refinery spill added to the chaos and devastation of the flooding. However, in the midst of all of this tragedy, one of our clients has decided to lend a helping hand.

DriveSavers, a leader in hard drive data recovery has offered to help the flood victims in Kansas by offering them free hard drive data recovery. With the all of the personal loss taking place in these hard hit areas, DriveSavers wanted to help in any way they could. Nowadays, computers are an integral part of homes and offices, and many personal data was lost in these floods.

“When I saw that 42,000 gallons of crude oil spilled from the Coffeyville Resources refinery on top of the devastation of the flooding, I knew we needed to help.” said Scott Gaidano, president of DriveSavers. “Water and oil exposure are the worst conditions for electronic equipment. If you find your computer submerged in water, your safest bet for getting your data back is to call a professional data recovery company like DriveSavers.”
