The telephone, e-mail and fax contact information listed here is only for the use of prospective or current clients of Internet Desk, Inc. and/or Data I.C.U. It may not be used by those wishing to contact us with solicitations of any kind. The only acceptable solicitation avenue is the U.S. Mail address information. Solicitors are instructed not to make follow-up phone contact attempts using this information. If we are interested in your product or service, we will contact you.
We admire your persistence, but cannot afford the time (which is money) to deal with all those who would wish to sell products or services to us. Besides, if we have to spend the time (and money) to answer your phone calls and take your fax transmissions, we will have to increase our prices. Our clients wouldn't like that.
For the record, we have not opted-in to any fax advertising list.
We will prosecute those solicitors who abuse this information. (Our attorney made us say it!)
Rotate your media
so that you always have at least one backup copy from the previous backup. Many will use daily tapes, backing up on Monday to the Monday tape, Tuesday to the Tuesday tape, etc. That way, if you have a failure and your most current backup is bad, you get another shot with the one that's a day older.
Laptop Computer Data Saved: A sales rep for a large multi-national firm returned from an extended trip, having dutifully entered all of his call details in a database on his notebook computer. His first day back in the home office revealed that his data collected over the past three weeks was not available. His IS department could not find the data, and issued a new notebook computer to the sales rep, but decided to check around for someone who could retrieve the data. Internet Desk was called and the data recovery process began. Since the information was so time critical, the DataICU worked around the clock and into the weekend to finish the recovery and made the files available via ftp in time for the Monday morning sales meeting.

Data backup is the first line of defence
to securing your files so that you can survive a hard drive failure. There are a variety of ways to accomplish this goal. If you have a local computer specialist that is working with your systems, please talk to that individual about a sensible backup program for you.
Floppy fire fight: A photographer of the digital persuasion had just finished a trip to three different cities where he recorded the images of a client's possessions for insurance purposes. The very next day -- before he had a chance to make copies of his work -- a fire destroyed his apartment. Not all was consumed, though. While sifting through the debris, he found the box of 1.44 floppies where all of the images of the last trip were stored. We put on our fire hats and went to work. One by one, slowly, they came back -- like the Phoenix rising from the ashes. We managed recovery of about 90% of the images, saving our client's relationship with his customer and preventing the cost of re-shooting the 10-day project.
