Hard Drive Climate Risks & Data Loss Prevention in New Orleans
Climate Zone: humid subtropical
Hot, humid summers with mild winters
New Orleans faces the highest flood risk of any major US city, combined with extreme humidity, hurricane exposure, and salt air from the Gulf. If your drive was exposed to floodwater—especially saltwater intrusion during hurricanes—never power it on. Contaminated water requires immediate professional cleanroom recovery. Every hour of delay increases corrosion damage.
Humidity can accelerate corrosion on drive platters and electronic components. Store drives in sealed bags with silica gel packets before shipping.
If your drive has been exposed to water, do NOT power it on. Place it in an open container (not sealed) and contact us immediately for water damage recovery.
Power surges during storms can damage drives. If you experienced outages, avoid repeated power-on attempts which can worsen damage.
High temperatures can cause thermal expansion in drive components. Never leave drives in vehicles during summer. Ship with insulated packaging.
Coastal salt air accelerates electronic corrosion. Store drives in sealed, climate-controlled environments. Clean exterior contacts before shipping.
General Storage Recommendations
Keep drives at 50-80°F with 30-50% relative humidity. Store in anti-static bags away from direct sunlight and magnetic sources. When shipping, use original packaging when possible or pack securely with bubble wrap in a sturdy box.

New Orleans's salt air and humidity can accelerate drive corrosion. Store drives in sealed anti-static bags with silica gel packets, away from windows and exterior walls.

Yes. New Orleans's summer temperatures can cause thermal stress that damages drive components. Never leave drives in vehicles during summer—interior temperatures can exceed 150°F. If your drive was exposed to extreme heat and failed, let it return to room temperature gradually before any recovery attempt. Rapid cooling can cause additional damage from condensation.
Yes, we specialize in water-damaged drive recovery. If your drive was exposed to floodwater during a hurricane: DO NOT power it on, place it in an open container (not sealed), and ship it to us as soon as possible.
