According to people who have been working with the hard drives, Miller reports they were so badly damaged that authorities face a significant challenge in retrieving any data from them about Adam Lanza. The Connecticut State Police gave the hard drives to the FBI to see if any data can be recovered from them.

The hard drives aren't the only digital lead that investigators are pursuing. Miller previously reported that authorities are also trying to retrieve emails and text messages from the Lanzas' service providers.
