| This is a general question addressed to everyone.
What different kinds of equipment does everyone use?
I am currently putting together a small business, including a portable kit
for field use, and was just curious as to what everyone used in their day to
day operations. Currently I have an antistatic wrist strap, a POST Card, a
working computer fully updated for testing purposes, and virus/spyware
removal, and a hard disk repair/forensic workstation, and I am looking at
purchasing a portable unit as well. I am also purchasing a tool kit and
an antistatic mat.
As for software I don't really have a lot of SW, but I am looking at copy
commander, of course a good antivirus, and partition commander.
What kinds of hardware does everyone keep in their kits? Does anyone have
any suggestions, or ideas as to any other equipment a person should have, or
about any software that is really good? All input welcome.
Thanks.

| A multimeter is always useful if you are dealing with problematic
power supplies - you can get really good ones on ebay.

Do a search for tools at Google groups and this group. There are several
threads on this subject with lots of good tips.

| I would check up on the partition manager . I heard from a few people that
40% of teh time the partitioning is unsuccesfull and can really give you a
headache ..just a thought .. but good luck with everything .. i would rather
make money for myself than work to get someone else paid any day ..
