We were finally allowed into the building late yesterday afternoon. A few of the field techs worked to pull out all the servers in the building, along with some of the critical PC's as well from various offices. The drives in hindenburg look almost entirely unscathed except for a whiff of smoke that doesn't seem to want to go away. The rest of the system is pretty much a lost cause, too much crap fell into the case via the rear and the rest is caked in wet plaster, ceiling tile and other such nastiness.
I have the drives at home now, but I have no computers at home with SATA connections so later today, I am heading to Fry's to get a new SATA card and check the drives viability tonight.
Everyone cross their fingers...
