1. An automated computer-implemented method of generating a contract, the method comprising:
- examining storage components installed in a computing device to produce hardware information;
obtaining at least one identification parameter associated with a respective at least one storage component installed in the computing device, the identification parameter uniquely identifying the at least one storage component;
communicating the hardware information and the identification parameter to a server;
storing the hardware information and the identification parameter in a database; and
generating a contract based on the hardware information and based on the identification parameter.

Abstract
A system and method for generating a contract related to a data recovery. Storage components may be automatically examined by a module that may be automatically downloaded from a server, over a computer network. Hardware information and an identification parameter may be obtained and sent to a server. A contract may be generated based on information received by the server. A contract may be validated and data recovery service may be provided based on a validated contract.

13. A system including a server and a computing device,
wherein the computing device is to automatically download a module from the server, the module being operative to: -
examine storage components installed in the computing device to produce hardware information, obtain at least one identification parameter associated with a respective at least one storage component installed in the computing device, the identification parameter uniquely identifying the at least one storage component, and communicate the hardware information and the identification parameter to the server; and wherein the server is to; store the hardware information and the identification parameter in a database, and generate a contract based on the hardware information and based on the identification parameter. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
