Hmm, EnCase with a hardware write blocker, huh? Sounds like the forensic version of duct tape and WD-40 - it fixes Jeanninerything!

A. DOS boot disk? What is this, the 90s? I doubt that would work for modern forensics.

D. Secure Authentication for EnCase (SAFE)? Isn't that just for logging in? I don't think that qualifies as a method for network image acquisition.
