Disclosed is a method of verifying the integrity of data acquired from a device emulating a hard disk to a host computer over a data transfer pathway. A storage medium containing known data is connected to the data transfer pathway, the storage medium capable of emulating a hard disk. The known data is transferred from the storage medium to the host computer over the data transfer pathway for storage on the host computer. A characteristic of the data stored on the host computer is compared with a corresponding characteristic of said known data to determine whether data corruption has occurred during data transfer over said data transfer pathway. The characteristic could be a hash code value, such as a Message--Digest 5(MD5) or Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) value.
