Thanks very much, [REDACTED], I’ll give you a call tomorrow.
In the meantime, I've been going through the attached spreadsheets trying to line up the CART evidence numbers that I= used to identify each device (contained in the spreadsheet entitled "evidenceStatuts20200729") with the 18 numbers and FBI barcode numbers that and used to identify those same devices (contained in the spreadsheet entitled "JE Evidence seized"). I've been able to match up most of the devices, but I'm still lost on the below:

Could you please tell me which FBI barcode and/or 16 numbers line up with all of the devices listed above?
Thanks very much,

Of course, I returned most of this stuff to evidence control literally last week, however I was able to get most of the information for you. See below in red. I will physically have to go to evidence control in the Bronx to look at the items that are missing. I can do that next week, as I have to go to the Bronx anyway. If that is not soon enough for you, let me know and I'll up the timeline.
As far as the drives that need rebuilding/recovery, I have not been able to get much traction on that due to the whole Covid thing. I will double the effort. Keep in mind, that even with the best of efforts, this process may not be successful. Just setting expectations.
Got it, thank you. As I'm working through all of these, a couple more questions came up.
First, would you be able to send me the 16 numbers for the below devices, please?
I. NYC024336 — Sony Vaio laptop (NY search)
NYC024337 — Sony Vaio laptop (NY search)
NYC027911 — 4 GB thumb drive (NY search)
Second, someone on our end appears to have entered a typo when typing the NYC numbers for certain devices into our review platform. Can you please confirm that there are NQ devices with the following CART numbers for this case?

A list of CART numbers is provided, with a correction for a suspected error in some of the original numbers.
| Original Number | Corrected Number |
|---|---|
| NYC029708 | NYC027908 |
| NYC029710 | NYC027910 |
| NYC029711 | NYC027911 |
| NYC029713 | NYC027913 |
I was able to decode a few more: NYC024328 (Space Grey Mac) is 1857 NYC024366 (Mac from VI search) is 1687 NYC024383 (silvewr iMac from VI) is 18118 NYC027913 (32 GB thumb drive) is 1640
Also: NYC024336 and NYC024337 are from NYC024335 a Sony Vaio 1862
The only item I need clarification on is NYC027911 the 4GB thumb drive. There were 2, and 1didn't work. I will have the evidence techs pull them and tell me which one is NYC027911.
And, you are correct about the transposition. The number sequence is NYC0279XX, NOT 97XX.
Got it, thank you very much!
Please keep me posted on the anticipated timing for loading all the image and video files onto the drive.
Will do. Starting that now.
