[clug-talk] Mailing a Hard Drive.

[John Jardine]

I've FedEx'd a couple of drives between Calgary, Toronto, San Franscisco
& Switzerland.  I took no special measures to protect the drive beyond
some basic packing:
Wrap drive in bubble wrap.  Enclose that in a few sheets of folded
8.5x11 copier paper, rotate 90degrees and enclose in another few pages
of folded copier paper.  Tape shut, and ship.

YMMV,
John Jardine
